Hello everyone,
I would like to overhaul my TH400 soon.
It is a bit leaky at the front to the torque converter, but shifts cleanly and neatly. The oil is red
brownish. I don't know if it was ever changed.
The entire truck is original in terms of engine and transmission, and I want to keep it original.
I plan to reseal the TH400 and redo all bearings, O-rings, friction and steel plates, Bushings, Torrington Bearings etc.
A new torque converter is also here.
Which kit is suitable for our CUCV ?
High Performance Kits seem to be necessary for an exorbitant amount of horsepower, I don't think we need that, do we?
There is also often talk of different "stages", I think that will affect the number of horsepower.
All I want is to reseal the TH400 and equip it with new bearings and replace the wear parts when I have already opened the TH400. I don't intend to swap the engine for a gasoline or turbo. I am very satisfied with the 6.2 diesel.
At Transparts-Warehouse, for example, there are several kits for sale for probably different horsepower strengths.
Also, the kits do not contain all the things I need for a revision of the TH400 and I have to buy additionally.
For example, there is the true no-walk case bushing, does this "upgrade" make sense?
Which Roler Sprag should I take?
There is a green rear seal (34074) for trucks, and a "normal" red rear seal (44074). Should I take the green one ? What are the differences between the two ?
I'm really sorry to annoy you with the stupid questions, but I hope that the community here can help me find the right kit.
