A727 Rebuild kits redux - Rebuild kits everywhere (62-70 vs 71+)
Well I've done it... My first build is in the books. :) Thanks for all of your advice and help!
One last question regarding the accumulator Blocker rod... I'm wondering if I should, or should not use it with the transgo tf2 kit. What do you think?
Food for thought please review the details of my final build:
My trans is set to the following spec:
1. Rear clutch pack clearance is .040
2. Front clutch clearance is .045
3. Planetary play is .025
4. Total end play clearance is .024
5. Front clutch pack increased from the 6 springs to 12
6. Front (KD) servo using both spring 45# inner/45#outer ( I have a 20# inner in inventory that can be switched in later)
7. L/R servo has the Transgo Spring and bush
8. Transgo restriction cup installed
9. Rear band adjusted to 3/8" of travel
10. Front band adjusted with small wrench to Snug then backed out 2.5 turns
Transgo TF2 setup.
Part 1:
A. Triangle did not drill
B. 1-2 shift did not drill (ball left out)
C. 2-3 shift drilled to .156 or 5/32
D. drilled to .234 0r 15/64
Part 2:
1. Re designed Manual Valve installed
2. Filed Notch halfway through manual bore
3. Drilled passage wall to increase fluid flow
4. Grind TV stem to .281 or 9/32 added yellow spring
5. Installed new shim and spring seat on PR valve, also added the new inner and outer Orange spring.
6. set PR adjustment flush against the inside edge of the spring retainer.
7. Installed new L/R Spring
8. Installed 2-3 restrictor cup
Split the Valve Body
Remove separator plate and Drill.
The valve body sandwich
Working on the Top half
Before Transgo Mods
After Transgo Mods
Updated Manual valve, springs and TV grind.
Now Im ready to button it up after that last hit with the Parts cleaner and compressed air.
All done and tucked away
Have a spare Stock 69 Valve Body cleaned and ready to restore back to OEM spec.
Thanks again everyone!
