Re: Trans question

[Richard Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Pat,  I suspect I may have been the culprit.  I talked with the trans shop that did my 727 and he is a "good old boy" who knows his stuff.  He mentioned that he tie wires the external seals to the trans for use in the installation.  I put those seals/o-rings on myself so perhaps in my ignorance I was the culprit?

Richard,

Picture shows a deformed seal of some type erroneously located on the “barrel” of the shift cable adapter. Only 2 types of seals that it may be are the 1960-65 reverse blocker valve seal or the 1960-65 speedo pinion seal. In the picture it looks like it could be either one. Anybody’s guess why it’s been installed on the adapter ?

Thanks; let me know if I can be of further assistance with parts or information.

I have replaced the broken tailshaft housing on my trans.. I also replaced the O-rings for the speedo, parking sprag, filler tube and cable shift.  I found an O-ring that looked right in a generic packet. The cable shift leaked horribly after I installed the new O-ring. Yesterday I went to a supplier and found the O-ring that should be right for the cable shift, APG112.  I pulled the pan and installed the new O-ring and it seems much tighter although there is very little outward difference to the eye. When I installed this I noticed a rubber seal that looks a bit like a valve seal that is floating on the shift lever shaft.  My question is if this should be floating or anchored somehow?? I have a spare trans and it doesn't have this other rubber seal BUT it's pretty beat up and there were some chunks floating around which could have been this seal.  Check out the photo and see if you can give me some info. The seal is between the locking spring and the housing.
