[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 610904, member: 483"] I know and respect what you are saying as someone with apparently years of transmission experience. I've known rear-end old-timers that can throw a set of gears in an axle in a few hours by feel and make them last longer than the guys out of school can with all their fancy new financed tools in double the time. On the other hand, I've heard how vital the timing of both bands in relation to each other is in this transmission. I also know that engineers can calculate the travel of that stud based on rise / run of the thread pitch and therefore determine the amount of space that they want between the servo and the lever when no pressure is applied. Also how fast the servo will apply the lever under a given PSI. I would assume they have done this to be able to offer up such specific specs for adjusting the bands. For someone like me, who has so little transmission service experience, I can't just screw the service manual and go by feel. A, I have no past experience to have any memory built up to accomplish it in the first place. B, if it didn't turn out to be right, I would have no point to go back to as a definitive reference. Please don't think I'm discounting your advice. Just trying to stick as close to the manual as possible this time so that I have a definitive point to go back to later if needed. Obviously you know what you're doing though. If the 72 in-lbs truly is too tight of a spec and I need to go back to 41 that is saying a lot for your experience because you said without even knowing that I used the wrong spec that it looked tight. That's impressive in my book! thumb.gif [/QUOTE]
