    Does it matter where this spring connects?

    Hi! We previously had issues with our transmission and got it rebuilt a few months ago. So we are pretty nervous about messing it up! Does it matter where this spring connects? The carb was cleaned over the weekend and when we picked it up the spring was connected at the bottom of the metal...

    It’s at the trans shop right now :) the diagnoses was that the 3/4 pack was burnt, rear planet had too much wobble,input drum needed to be replaced, and it looks like at some point someone had partially installed a corvette servo. So that is getting taken out and replaced with a transgo shift...

    Thank you SO much for the tip! I will check it out. I don’t have a Facebook but will make one just for this… I’m really at a loss for what to do right now other than call around the auto shops. So I will definitely reach out to the group. Thanks again I really appreciate it!

    Florence area! We had to drive over to Eugene to get the valve replaced at Advance transmission. There isn’t really anyone over here that does the internal trans work that we know of
