Anyone running a 904 behind a 340?
Maybe before you tell me I'm incorrect,you should study this.
If you released the low band as soon as you let go of the switch, then you would also have no 1st (low) gear.. It would be in 1st (Drive):rolleyes: with the sprag carrying all the load.
The transbrake uses 1st (low) and Reverse at the same time to lock the trans.
Can you tell what gets released to unlock the trans? (Hint, it's not the Low-Reverse band.)
You don't jam a super sprag in there to try and fix the issue, you lock the Low -Reverse drum,which is a better, stronger way of doing it.
The whole idea of applying the Low band is to prevent 1st gear shock loading to the sprag..and engine breaking.
If your going to load and unload the trans off the start line in 1st gear, then your going to want that Low band applied.
That's why Chrysler designed it that way..

No they don't.. I think your still a little mixed up with what actually does what.
