    M1009 transmission service.. hopefully a bad joke?

    Nah, no clearance issues. Pretty much I was trying to get away from the filter as far as possible since it's the lowest thing. Though, I completely forgot about the proximity to the FWD driveshaft. I have an inch or two so it "should be ok". Best case the driveshaft will protect it :-) I could...

    M1009 transmission service.. hopefully a bad joke?

    Just to wrap this one up... it was definitely the spacer for the filter. Found a great vintage video taking the TH400 apart while attached to the vehicle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSFdFaIVeIc The deep pan on 4 wheel drive vehicles has a spacer, the shallow pan does not. It took...

    Cleaned the bushing up.. zero damage and it's only 1/2" OD. Maybe something from the speedo gear assembly or some other supplemental thing? Watching a rebuild of a TH400 and really not seeing any *bushings* that small involved in the core transmission functionality.

    M1009 transmission service.. hopefully a bad joke?

    Noticed some leakage from my transmission and the gaskets were looking pretty old. Pulled pan to the standard lovely bath of ATF. (anyone have any mods adding a drain to the TH400? The "controlled spill" never seems to go well on the best of days) Anyway, went to check the magnet for metal...
