c6 transmission

Does anybody know or have a picture of a ford transmission counter weight that ford installed on some transmissions to reduce vibration. I have a harmonic type vibration and we finally figured out it was from the tranny.
This is a 55 f100. c6 9" rear 302 engine

Thanks

I've seen them on 4 cylinder Pintos--a bar with a bunch of plates riveted together on the end of them. Sometimes found along the side of the road.

With that combo you shouldn't have engine vibes causing issues. Is your drive line lined up correctly? U-joints lined up right? DS balanced? Correct flex plate in the engine?

Now I see your earlier post:

You fail to mention this amount of slop in this post. Hanging a weight on your trans isn't going to fix this problem.
