I'm with J and Shep. Your 1755 should aready have the charlynn unit. Shep. We replaced the saganaw unit in one of our 1850's with a charlynn unit that came out of our 1950 (someone that had it before us must have changed it over). It is kinda a pain getting it out of there. If I remember correctly, I had to remove the steering wheel and the part of the dash with all of the instuments. Then there are those large screws with locking nuts that the unit pivots on that have to be backed out enough to get the unit out. I think that there is a plug in the sheet metal part of the dash (next to handle) that comes out and you can back these out with a large flat head screw driver. That should be about it to getting it out, other than the hoses of course. Oh yeah, you will probrably need to press the tilt wheel pedal down when you lift it out of there, so that the pin that holds the tilt in position is pulled out of the unit. The charlynn unit was in some sort of frame, since the unit itself is much smaller than the saganaw unit, that held the unit but also allowed for the pivot pins and tilt holding pin to be used as it was for the saganaw unit. It may be the same frame that was used in the 55 series. J or some of the other experts in here could probrably tell you that. Also, I believe that the ends of the hoses were different that connect to the charlynn unit, so you may need to have some hoses made to go from the unit to where the original hoses attached to the steel lines near the coupling chain on the hydraul shift. I think that the steering wheel and column are different as well. I hope this helps.
