    It makes too much sense for people asking for help to give all the relevant information to make it easier for other members (members who are taking the time to volunteer their knowledge, assistance and experience for NOTHING) to more efficiently and effectively help the requesting party. I'll...

    700R4 Information Thread

    You're welcome, man...Sometimes the valve body is no good but there's no clearly identifiable reason...I am working on designing a vacuum test plate for those 700R4 VBs so that they can be thoroughly tested and weaknesses identified before bolting them back on...

    700R4 Information Thread

    To be clear, you have NO 3-4 upshift? If so, check the 4th gear servo piston's scarf cut sealing ring - it's on the inside of the servo cover. If that's in good shape, drop the pan, VB and see if any valves are sticking (3-4 throttle valve/spring/sleeve and 3-4 shift valve, 3-4 relay valve...

    700R4 Information Thread

    Bumping this up with another video - this one showing the pump repair/ream job and installation/testing of the Sonnax oversized pressure regulator valve...The original valve was heavily worn and likely contributed to the myriad of drivability symptoms that plagued this unit while it was in the...

    Buying a rebuilt transmission th350

    Don't know the answer to that until you post the build sheet so we can see what was installed. If it's a purely stock rebuild with none of the requisite updates that need to go into all TH350s upon overhaul, then yes - $750.00 is too high because you'll be into yours for less in parts once all...

    Buying a rebuilt transmission th350

    I'd definitely rebuild your existing unit if the guy wants $750, unless he has paperwork showing exactly what was installed, all the parts that should have been installed were installed, when the work was performed and how many miles at the time of the rebuild as well as a means for you to...

    Buying a rebuilt transmission th350

    How would anyone be able to answer that question if we don't know what you would be paying the seller for this other unit?

    700R4 Information Thread

    Hey All, bumping up the thread with a video on the "Nemesis" Rebuild profile ... This will be the first in a series of vids capturing the build-up...I'll post here as each gets published to my YT channel. Enjoy and TIA for watching!

    please recommend a transmission dipstick that isn’t junk.

    I wish some of your local junk yards were present here in Vegas...All of our pick-a-parts have old stuff from the 70s, 80s and 90s plus early 00's...Anything after 2010 is largely non-existent in local pick yards...Would love to have access to later model vehicles for the transmissions...

    700R4 Information Thread

    You need at least .040 to be on the safe side so get it however you need to get it. Your existing drum is prob warped but even if it's not, it's an inferior design. Those drums also had a lot of variability; I have had issues with them and clearance as well in the past. You can machine a step...

    700R4 Information Thread

    I have identified the problem! Next step is placing that drum into the scrap bin and purchasing a new AC Delco rev input drum. Your current belleville plate, piston, return spring and clutch pack w/backing plate will all transfer over. That should solve your clearance problems and enable you to...

    please recommend a transmission dipstick that isn’t junk.

    Go to the junkard and buy a good used OEM one out of a TH350 for $5-$10.

    700R4 Information Thread

    Ha! They missed building the transmission at all, lol! I've only read a few positive things about his transmissions and had to search high and low to find them (maybe they were him or friends' accounts posting good things, who knows...) but yes, agree 100% on finding a local, trustworthy and...
