    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    I know I mentioned it before. But here we go again. Are the C clips on the trunnion caps that are in the axle yoke? These need to be in place to keep the U joint centered and correctly in place. Clean the yoke thoroughly so that the C clips can center and seat properly. Just bolting the straps...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    I still like a tire frying car. I had many ex police cars in my life. The old Plymouth Gran Fury 440 with a 727 transmission and a Dana 60 rear axle. With the transmission shift linkage locked out you could only go into drive. It was virtually bullet proof. Of all the cars I had the older 70's...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    He built me a HD truck transmission. Another one of them deals where the rear tires were always bald. I am Guilty. It could fry the 17" Eagles. Wonder where the Son got it from? 1 life, Live it. I had a shop that serviced CVPI's and they were not allowed to plug or patch police departments...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    I would not deal with a shop that I don't trust. same as people that I send parts to and trust them to pay me. That is not happening anymore from this end. I have a man that rebuilds my transmissions and differentials. 1 catch I do the R & R. He does not want vehicles at his business only the...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    Probably should have the VRV adjusted. That can be hard on the transmission if it shifts that hard. My M1009's drive like they have a 350 gas motor in them after a fresh properly adjusted transmission and a new injection pump in stock form. I remember driving many CUCV's back when they were...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    At this point I think they have double out lived the life expectancy of the reliability. Get it rebuilt at a COMPETENT shop and drive on. I redo everyone at this point. I can't sell an old vehicle with a bad transmission and an old injection pump. Refresh both and all will be well. It's a Simple...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    Lets think about what I said. If I were in need of a TH400 transmission and the local salvage yard had one in a truck the same year as mine and I was going to do the swap myself. 1.) I am doing it on the ground and with basic hand tools and a floor jack. I have a piece of plywood to set between...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    30+ year old transmissions are not reliable. I work part time in an auto salvage yard and they don't sell things that old as a serviceable replacement component. You can buy it "as is" and cash and carry only. Little hard to sell a 30+ year old transmission and warrant it. At this point in time...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    It has issues. The issues need resolved or further damage will occur. Use caution when choosing who works on anything you own. Good Luck. GA is a long way off. I would assist if I could. Take Care. I have a few rebuildable cases here. Not burnt out but I don't sell or install used Automatic...

    Question about Rebuilt(?) TH-400

    https://globaltransmissionparts.com/rear-band-th400-4l80e/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw6-SDBhCMARIsAGbI7UhZiOZx7AvvjLJKeZxxgYilxFwGGVGIfqbZcgzdFmX-sGH3OlMVvZcaArO6EALw_wcB I am going to ask. Did they rebuild the transmission? And did they adjust the vacuum? It sounds to me like the reverse band in the...
