Inspection of a 904 torqueflite
You stated that I posted that the output shaft doesn't move; which is a plain lie. And now you accuse me of insulting somebody; which is, of course, an insult to me. Continually posting my quotes and making accusations of me on this and other threads; combined with lying about me constitutes STALKING. And now you want me to call somebody for you. This post might get me banned but people like you who post incorrect information are the bane of the internet.
Buddy calm down.
You are misunderstanding. I asked a question about sealing ring width because I notice my new Teflon are much thinner than metal.
While researching I saw the post you made about sealing ring on the other thread. Not there to stalk you. I was there because you talked about sealing rings. Go into the tran section and see my question about sealing rings. You did not answer the question.
You don't like or agree with my explanation for standing the trans on end. I was simply suggesting that for both our knowledge you could phone the very reputable and friendly Rick Allison of A&A transmission and ask him to give us his reasoning for suggesting to measure that way. He published recommendations in Tom hands new trans book to help people.
My sealing ring issue has nothing to do with worn parts.
I have brand new Teflon sealing rings and I noticed they are much thinner then metal ones, like .030 thinner. I did not know if this is normal or if I had the wrong parts.
There is always more than 1 right way to skin a cat as they say.
A different way is not necessarily wrong. Many aftermarket drum now have replaceable liners in the sealing ring area. All machined parts have tolerances during manufacture. Depending on the bore size and how deep the scoring is, it can sometimes be possible to machine a drum, but like you said sometimes not.
Not trying to offend you, but you need to remember there are many Torqueflite builders on a Mopar site that know a thing or 2 besides you. Sorry to have upset you. That was not my intent.
