hard to see in the pic but what is that rating at 3306? right under the rating for 2700rpm
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I wonder if there are any other torque converters that you could use for less or no gear reduction at the torque converter.the question isnt so much if it will fit but more why would you want to put an a3 trans in an a2? the a3 uses a 3000-3200rpm rpm motor . While the multi only goes to 2600.In other word if you put an a3 trans in a a2 top speed would be about 42mph. Even if you put 46s on it top speed of about 50-52mph.Sure an a3 will dust an a2 up to 50 but the a2 will roll on by it from there.On a long trip the a2 will be so far ahead you wouldnt have to look at that ugly a3 front end in the mirror![]()
torque converters dont provide more gear ratio they multiply the usible torque .they effectively slip in a sense. to allow the engine to pick up rpms while still providing power to the transmission. the are no gears in a torque converter.there are three parts to a converter the pump,turbine and stator. fluid is thrown from the pump across the turbine to the stator as fluid is thrown across the stator it makes it pick up speed .this is how it works a lock up converter eliminates this action when in lockup so it effectively acts like a cluctch when in lock up. there are different stalls of converters. but this only moves the rpm up or down that they engage at
I believe that is max. RPM. 2700 is peak HP, but the engine will turn faster than that.hard to see in the pic but what is that rating at 3306? right under the rating for 2700rpm
Rust. It was up in this area for 3 years, now the rockers and floors are gone, the frame is getting quite rusty, the hatch is shot...there is no resurrecting it. I might put the Cummins in a good 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ I have.What happened to your Durango?
