Denny,
The hydraulic thermostat PN for the '56 Filtrator is 5432376, and was shared also on the '57. This will be a difficult part to find and may require locating a donor dryer if a spare used one doesn't pop up. GM played with the set points on this thermostat through the production of the original Filtrator dryer. The earliest ones have the hottest set points - the 1953 TR-60 and 1955 DV-65. GM lowered the set points for the first time on the '56/'57, with the '58-'60 having the lowest. Depending on the mounting and length of the capillary tube you might be able to get away with a generic, but it would require some test fitting and calibration runs. Ben

Thanks ! Thanks John, Ben I appreciate the input. It gives me some info where to start. I hope I can get this back in running order. It worked better than my LG. The Frigidaire dried my jeans on medium heat in about 35 minutes where my new LG is about 50-55 minutes. | ||
