Well I was cleaning up the tranny i got from a yard (they got styrofoam in it) .. putting a new filter/gasket on it all the gears turn good no excessive wear from a tranny with 98k miles looks like less to tell the truth iv took trannys with more then that and they look way worse.. anyway I need alittle help here iv done mostly manual tranny's



was wondering where these went (2 washers I assume around some bolt holes or something).. where stuck to the magnet when I opened it



also this band popped out i know its a pinch band to stop and engage **** but Im uncertain how to get it back in i cant close it far enough..


thanks, ryan

 

a shot in the dark.. seems possible though.

 

good fkin guess!! i imagine thats it looks like nothing holds them so when I lifted the bell part off there they went


anyways anyone else know about the band?

 

credit for the guess goes to the diagrams in the fsm. if there's anything that requires a service manual it's working on an auto tranny. here's what it says about the band....


i've never touched an auto trans so i don't have any specifics, sorry. good luck though and i hope you've got a service manual or at least an exploded diagram. probably one at the autozone.com manual in the sticks.

 

Thats clean.. Too bad it's a weak tranny

 

ya this one has a few strech marks but where there from before I wouldnt see them as a problem (if they where clutches different story) I just cant get the damn band back on... any Idea how I need to get this thing out of my friends garage before his dad kills me lol

 

somehow get it back in circle form and use a clip like it shows. i'd take it to a tranny shop.

 

im gonna take it up to my school (TSTC) on monday after I get a new one probably.. mine has some light surface cracks (dont go all the way through) should I still use it? im selling the car

 

sorry man, i have absolutely no idea if you should replace or not. i've never worked on a lottomatic...

 

think im just gonna replace clutches + band see how much they will be and move from there everything else is metal and theres no bad wear patterns...

 

the steel discs between the clutches can go bad as well.
Ask me how I know.

 

got 4 new clutches and a band plus flush for the lines so I already flushed the lines gonna change the other **** tomorrow, the bands where they contact where alittle burned/colored but besides that where perfectly fine and not burned where they met the clutches so im reusing them
