    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    First wash in about two years. The grille has oxidation, so it's on my list to address.

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    Thanks. I only use this truck several times a year for hauling. I hadn't maintained it well over the 20 years I've owned it, so I decided to fix as much as possible while it was down with a failed transmission. There's still some work left, but it drives great and feels more reliable.

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    This truck needed A LOT of work because I hadn't maintained it well the 20 years I've owned it. I finally was able to put everything back together, start the engine, and run through the gears; it seems to be shifting great so far. Here's a list of everything I addressed over the last 4 months as...

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    Flushed the trans lines before hooking them up to the rebuilt TH400. I didn't expect to see so much metal debris. Hoping to wrap this up this weekend.

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    Yes, the only plastic washer is a selective for the pump. In addition to what's included in the Jegs 555-62014 kit, here are the new parts. Hopefully, I didn't miss anything critical: - Bronze thrust washers - Torrington bearings - Low roller clutch - Intermediate roller clutch - All bushings -...

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    I reinstalled the spring with a new aluminum accumulator. The rebuilt transmission with all new bushings, clutches, etc. is ready to go back in the car. Rear end play is 0.0012", and the front end play is 0.0011". Hopefully, it will operate smoothly. I thought it would be prudent to replace the...

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    I finally got around to disassembling the TH400 because the truck stopped shifting out of first gear and has been sitting for months. The valve body's plastic accumulator piston is shredded to pieces. Hopefully, the internals are in good shape and the rebuild will go smoothly.

    Thanks. Any idea which part may have shredded into pieces and ended up in the pan?

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    I suspected that a rebuild was in order, but I wanted to exhaust all possibilities before proceeding. The ATSG manual just arrived today.

    TH400 Slipping When Warm - Chunks in Oil Pan

    My truck's TH400 2wd transmission leaks when parked and slips after it's warm. I replaced the vacuum modulator, pan gasket, and filter less than a year ago. I found what appears to be plastic chunks in the oil pan and some fine metal debris. Governor gear is fine. Thoughts? Am I looking at a...

    A-R-A Manufacturing AC Blower Switch

    I searched the world for that switch. I'm surprised, too.

    A-R-A Manufacturing AC Blower Switch

    Well, the seller didn't respond to my request for pics, so I took a gamble and made the purchase. The switch that arrived today matches my original, and my AC appears to be working just in time for the sunny and warm weather we're supposed to be seeing the rest of the week. The part I purchased...

    A-R-A Manufacturing AC Blower Switch

    Thanks for the ph#. I hadn't looked much, since I'd read they were no longer in business. I could have gotten bad info. The good thing is that the terminals are labeled on the board to which they're attached. I was trying to think of how I could make the four-terminal original switch I just...
