got started on the new trans, od is already done just getting the front half set up.
gottem stacked in there running bout 60 thou on em, got 6 fibers stuck in there, and 5 in the forward clutch.
Billet servos both rear and front and accumulator
stacked up to check endplay, set trans on a big socket so all the shafts fall all the way to the back of the trans
used a hose clamp around input and used a pry bar to bring it up
pretty happy with that endplay, was pretty wide at first sumwhere in the 80's I had to double stack 2 washers between the intermediate and input shaft to get what I have. I got the gear endplay at around 23. also I have a pile of the fiber washers in different thicknesses I could change between the pump or between the clutch packs instead of using the 2 washers. kinda feel like that drum is riding just a little high up on the shell, but dunno maybe someone can chime in.
also got a wide rigid front band
also steel front planet from patc
now im just waiting for the new sonnax input shaft to come in and I can button up the insides, will rechecked endplay again after I install the new input. wouldn't think its gonna change much though.
