We have similar shenanigans going on here in CO - developers are getting permits to build homes on known unstable hillsides, and then they fall off after just a few years. Both situations can only be the result of deep corruption, and in your case, willful stupidity on the buyers' parts (that picture says it all).
The OD and reverse bands were toast... also ran the numbers, and this is from an 05 Town Car.
Only got a pic of the OD band though
I did get the pump, forward, and direct drum rebuilt though.
This is something you did in the past correct, with the buddy that's going through the divorce correct ? You're not doing this now right ?
Good experience ehh. Looks like you got it all, I went through the bottom of one and that was it. You comfortable doing one yourself yet ?
Not easy. If you've been watching Paul lately,he's been been having some trans problems with various vehicles, that's after going through them. There's a lot to those things..
In the past worked with him, yes. I did all of his advertising for about 6 years.... his 5 best years were when I was running his ads. BUT now, I am learning to build with him. He has so much work piled up right now. He wants me to do the Ford stuff, and he'll do the GM and Dodge for now - but I'll get into the 4L60/700R4's a little down the road.
Yeah, I've seen Paul's bad run of trans stuff. Kind of a bad luck streak!! The THD350 and 400's are supposedly the easiest transmissions to build. My Buddy just finished one, probably be sold today. He's doing a Powerglide today if he can source a new valve body, as well as a THD200 - which I'll never understand why someone would want that.
The Powerglide was left outside, thus full of water. I'm guessing the water froze and cracked the valve body in 3 places.... only got a pic of two cracks here though.
I saw that a couple day ago, that tow truck driver probably chit his drawers ! lol
I don't think the tow driver's brain reacted fast enough to realize what happened until the car passed over.
The car was on the ground by the time the chit erupted.
