we could build a lot of transmissions in that shop.

I have the answer for you, but I'm going to have to give it to you in the form of a jumble, because we can't just have everybody jumping on this bandwagon. It will make prices skyrocket due to the sudden demand. It's three words. LIRAFTOFREMIL

Very likely I'm going to do the same. I'm sure Glowshift is no Autometer, but for my purposes it's perfectly fine and in some ways better (ie the color changing, whatever, don't @ me). And the reviews were somewhat mixed but I've installed several and am pretty confident that if you secure...

Discovered I may have a thermostat problem. It was around 30F (quite cold for DFW) Saturday morning and even after driving for 30+ minutes the temp gauge never even got to the "2" in 210, normally it sits right on the "1". And my trans temp gauge never even got to 110F. The low trans...

You should look into what people have to say about that swap. It's basically a downgrade in every imaginable way, other than the cost of replacement, since AW4's are plentiful in the $200 price range. That alone might tell you something.

rebuilding is a hassle even if you're going to do it yourself, and this is coming from the guy who seeks out such jobs. I would almost certainly try the flush first. Replacing the torque converter is honestly 98% of the hassle. The rebuild job itself is pretty much a cakewalk, the effort...

Looks right to me.

There is a seal at the pump, where the torque converter snout mates to the pump stator. There is a seal at the shift selector shaft This is true of the 30RH (4cyl) and 32RH (6 cyl). There is no seal at the extension housing because the transfer case has a seal at the input shaft. If you...

The 42RLE doesn't use any bands, just the 30RH & 32RH. These friction materials are porous, I would not expect OP could ever flush enough, at least in a practical sense, all of the old fluid out. I would expect the clutches have plenty of residue & the TC as well. And if we assume that...

If only somebody had told him a week ago (a) that he was overthinking it, (b) how to use a lever to lift the end while guiding it in, and (c) to get a brush to clean out the tube. Wait hang on.....some of that sounds familiar. /homersimpson_bushes.gif

This thread makes me feel extremely efficient.

I have seen exactly that on an XJ. He was having shifting problems anyway, so we just used the told tail housing from mine after I did the SYE. Truthfully I don't know what problems yours would cause in that state. Unless you can get your hands on a new/old tail housing (anyone who did an...

So these either spin with the shaft and potentially ride on the inside wall of the axle tube, or they I guess bind up in the tube and then the shafts ride on those bumps? Nothing about this seems like a good idea, but I clearly don't understand the necessity so I'll Homer Simpson right back...

Well that didn't take the turn I was hoping for.

That's completely valid but at the same time if she can't do this job then what jobs can she do??

Do you have a pic of your overhead radio mount? And what radio? /hijack

But seriously, any time you're ready.

Hmm...are you certain it's coming from the transmission? If I'm right that it is gear whine (and there is no telling if I'm right!), it could be your rear diff, since in reverse it's loading the other side of the ring gear so it's not anything you hear in forward gears? Maybe disconnect the...

IDK about this specifically, but whine is often times a gear mesh sound. I would triple check your fluid level. You may not be aware, but you need to check your level while running & warm, and in NEUTRAL. If you're low, use ATF+4 only. I would start there.

I was thinking a relay with a long turn off, or maybe an RC circuit with RC high enough to hold the relay open until the turn signal cycles back on?
