904 Transmission Stopped Going Into Gear
I have more sub-assemblies apart.
Here are the pictures and my thoughts on re-use vs. replace for each. Any advice is appreciated.
Oil pump looks good. Will clean and reassemble.
Direct clutch disks and steels. Look gently worn. I'll replace the frictions and re-use the steels.
Forward clutch frictions and steels show heavy wear, heat discoloration, and scarring. Looks like this is where everything went bad for the trans. I will replace everything here except maybe the forward apply pressure plate and direct forward pressure plate if they are still flat.
Bushing in forward drum shows some wear and scratches, should I replace it? I should probably just replace all bushings, right?
Forward clutch piston looks good but seal was so stiff it was very difficult to remove the piston and the rubber started to come apart when I flexed it by hand.
Do I need to remove the shaft from the drum? How is that done? That big brown washer is flopping around. Is that the "front clutch fiber washer"?
Forward drum with clutch assembly removed. Do I remove that snap ring to completely disassemble? Do I even need to do that?
Finally, what about my torque converter? It is a blue one and looks to be in good shape. Should I just re-use? Pay someone to flush? Get a new one?
Thanks everyone.
