Killed the whole car.

Yes, and yes.

I'd try less clearance in the forward drum--about .015"-.020". No less than that. Any tighter and it may drive forward in neutral. .042" is too much, and "could" have caused the pressure plate to break. You can see it broke right wear the snap ring void is. The wear on the apply piston from...

No, there isn't a way to put it back together properly with the transmission horizontal. It needs to come out of the car and stood up on the output shaft in order to get the clutch packs lined up. The front band will also have to come out to do that correctly.

They have good products. Trust me, I know after being a dealer for them for 25 years. They were also too busy to sell me their products in the 25th year. The first 24 years went great. Launched my web store a few years back and could have sold them a fair amount of products, but they could...

Clean neutral valve bodies are for folks who have aluminum rods as to not decelerate down on the rod. There are several things that should be done with the transmission when going this route. If you have OEM powder forged drums, you definitely do not want to neutralize your transmission at...

To my knowledge that round replacement washer is only available in fiber now. You will be fine to reuse yours.

The pipe plug in the extension housing is to check governor pressure in automatic shift applications. As for the input to output thrust washer, it depends on the year/design of the output shaft.

Depends on the year. What year transmission are you working on? The case casting changed in the pump suction area where the valve body bolts to the case in the 1995-up 42/44 transmissions. It is larger than the 46/47 transmissions. Also, if the 47RH is from a diesel (not a v10) the shift...

The only reason it would come out of the vent is if the fluid level is overfull.

The hub on the converter is likely cracked. Very common problem with the 904 converter.

This is a topic where you may get several different answers when it comes to checking endplay. If the hard parts are mismatched from several different years that could very well be a problem as pump stator supports and input shafts changed 3 different times. Need to check if you have a 2 or 3...

The forged levers break often with high pressure valve bodies. I once had a certain manufacturer's forged levers break in 4 or 5 transmission in one summer. We install billet levers in everything we build now--as I don't like receiving THAT phone call. In addition to a heavy duty band strut...
