    Used a 1/4-20 tap and plug for those holes. The center support bolt. And the 3-4 accumulator hole, with some blue loctite. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Chased all the bolt holes, just to be sure. Chris called me back this morning, he doesn't have the thicker sunshell thrust washers anymore, good thing I found the others on fleabay. I am going to tap the center support bolt and plug it for the dual feed, and tap the hole to block the 3-4...

    Found 2 thicker forward drum thrust washers on Ebay and bought them. Should have them Monday. This will allow me to get the rear section end play to the .002" to .004" I need. Right now I have .024". I have another 2004r I want to do, so I am sure the selection will come in handy. Sent from...

    So after looking at the end play for the rear section, I have .024", the book calls for .002 to .004. So, called CK to get an .080" I put drum thrust washer to take up that .020". Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Well, I need to order another low/reverse wave plate. Also, I think the hole I need to add is .060", that was from doing some internet snooping on other builds. I think that is correct. Anyone have any input? Also, I seem to have a few extra rubber seals from the kit. I've replaced them one...

    Added holes to every flat on the forward clutch hub/Internal gear. These clutches and steels that came out had hot spots where there wasn't holes. I'm using the CKP, and service manual as a guide for this built. But, I have a problem. I dropped the rag with 2+2 on this page and lost some text...

    Got back at it a bit today, cleaned up the drum. The surface is flat, and the notches are in great shape. More to come. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Jack, that stinks! At least I'm not the only one who broke them. I was going to use teflon, but the most I read they weren't necessary, and wore the drum faster. I dont know one way or the other. I am doing a little hear and there as I have time, I hope to get it done through next week. Sent...

    Jack, I have been using bushing dri ers, sockets, etc. At work we have most everything. I dont have all the bushing drivers at home. I got my kit from CK. I did have an issue with the center support shaft iron rings, the replacements. I broke them trying to lock them back together. Ughh, the...

    Jack, in work I have 4 different kitsch on bushing drivers. I have used something from each so far. So, I think it's hard to pinpoint one kit [emoji35]. I finished up the overrun assembly. Working on the center support now. I mistakenly opened up the plastic thrust bearing oil feed hole on the...

    You never know. I pulled this apart and all the soft parts look great, the band got jacked up. I cant get the boost valve out, looks like I'll be drilling a hole in the center of it and using a slide hammer to get it out. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
