    I already ordered direct from A&A. Maybe I could cancel it, not sure, if you send me a PM with info.

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    I'll follow up once I have this back together and get it out for a drive. Thanks to everyone for your help and input!

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    Thanks for taking your time to help explain how and why some of these work together. I pulled the accumulator to verify and there are no springs and has the blocker rod. I'm not 100% positive, but I think I remember adding the additional springs to the front clutch pack for 15 total. I'd rather...

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that before. No spring , I believe if memory serves me correct. I'm heading out this afternoon, my band has a show tonight, but will continue to follow-up as quick as possible. Thanks again.

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    Is there a center spring that I could order or pick up to add to my current billet servo? I hate to buy a whole new kit if I could avoid it. Maybe someone has an extra? Maybe I'll talk to the locan transmission guy. Just asking. I want to get it back together asap. Thanks again, guys. -Doug

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    No low band apply. It's been a long time since it was built so my memory is vague. I don't know the clearance #s but I believe it has 5 red clutches. These days, I take much more detailed photos and notes of everything I do to the car. I should have done better on tranny build day. Haven't...

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    Cool, Thanks again for all your info. I'll switch to the 3.8 and replace the screen filter with a dacron. It'll probably be at least 2-3 weeks before I have everything back together. I'm hoping to drive it to Mopars In The Park, Minnesota. I have my work cut out!

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    I appreciate the advice. Do you think switching to a 3.8 lever would help with the overlap at all, especially if my front clutch has 12 springs rather than 15?

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    I pulled the servo and it has just one big spring as shown. The second photo shows the only other spare springs I have on hand. Either one of them fits inside the main large spring. Should I consider adding one of these to it? Also, I checked the kickdown band adjustment which was set at 1.5...

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    Thanks. I’m running type F but would have to open it up further to verify the other things unless I can find some old photos. I planned to put the same fluid back in that I drained out. Not sure if switching fluids would be safe at this point? Actually, the 2-3 overlap is the worst if I'm...

    Having 2-3 shift overlap - Thinking of switching from 4.2 apply lever to 3.8 - Any Other Thoughts?

    Hi guys, I'm in the middle of lots of maintenance items on my Barracuda, one of which is addressing the 2-3 shift overlap clunk. We built this tranny (727) several years ago (2015) and it's still running strong but has the nasty 2-3 overlap clunk only when under very light throttle conditions...

    Is There Supposed To Be A Fiber Washer/Spacer Here? -727

    Thanks for the reply! I just finished reading a couple more long tranny build threads which also confirmed that along with a couple other things. I feel ready for final assembly now! Then cleaning valve body and installing Transgo TF-2 kit.

    Is There Supposed To Be A Fiber Washer/Spacer Here? -727

    Going through a 727 and have everything ready for final assembly. But it seems like the rear drum shouldn't be resting directly on top of the sprag without a washer or spacer of some sort (picture attached). This is a tranny we got from an RV but not known if it was in drivable condition at the...

    a727 no third gear

    Thanks for all that info. Damn, how do you keep it all straight??? Working on a couple of 727 rebuilds now, so this is all real good readin'. Cheers! Glad the OP has gotten it all working!

    Installed new pistol grip

    I like it! But I might be a little biased... I modified my Cheetah STS shifter in a similar way.

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    Where does that NoYoYo valve go exactly? I don't think I need it but curious... Thanks for the pics!

    stainless braided tranny line sprung a leak??

    I used 5/16" steel fuel line from O'reilly and bent my own up, ran them up against the inside of the frame rail all the way to the front and it worked great. That sucks about your expensive stainless!

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    Thanks for that info. I have no idea how that rear band ended up so damn loose! Hopefully, things will be fine now but time will tell.

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    I pulled the transmission pan and did a thorough visual inspection of everything. The reverse/low band adjustment was extremely loose and the front band was pretty loose also. After adjusting both of those Andy follow-up test drive, it seems to be operating normally now! I am still curious about...

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    I believe I have found the problem: the rear band adjustment seems really loose. I can move the lever quite a bit with my finger, as shown in the video clip. I will tighten it up to 72 inch lbs and back it off two turns. Will also check the front band adjustment while I'm at it. Hopefully, they...

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    Thanks @TrailBeast for the links and insight! I will be checking into these more tomorrow. The center port never showed any pressure at at in any gears. But we never had the whells moving either while testing. Had my foot on the brake and brought rpm up to around 1600 or so.

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    To clarify, I ran it after rebuilding it fot 2 years with no issues. Was still working great when I pulled it out. Hoping maybe @fishy68 or @TrailBeast may be able to shed some light. :)

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    Nope. I'm aware of that issue and it's not that at all. I've let it run in neutral for a long time and checked fluid levels. Never gets any better.

    727 manual valve body-Reverse is slipping BAD, All other gears seem good - Pressure tested

    OK, so my transmission performed really great when I pulled the drivetrain out 2 years ago to paint my car. I had previously overhauled it with all the good stuff and billet servos from Oregon Performance, etc. Now, it slips real bad in reverse. Just drove to down to my friend's garage today...

    Here's a more-affordable option that has great review. It's about $27 bucks on Amazon:

    What the f’n trick to get the tail shaft clip spread far enough apart

    Are these the ones? $70 bucks. Looks like it. I ask because i will be pulling a couple of tailshafts off in the not-too-distant future. Pliers, Snap Ring, 90° Angle Jaws, 14" long
