    2-3 bind up

    Is there anything else that might cause a bind up on 2-3 other than the hole in the separator plate when dual feeding? I am running CKs kit. I was running a 2.73 rear end and never had a problem with bind up. I switched to 3.73. I overheated my tranny on the freeway due to a poor cooler setup. I...

    direct drum oversize rings?

    I just bought a rebuilt direct drum. It came with cast iron oversize rings. Are these ok to use or should i try to find some teflon rings instead?

    i keep burning 2nd

    That was about how much I took off a cut too. On the final cut i turned the speed all the way down and let it go over it twice without changing anything. I thought it came out pretty good. Except the diameter is probably too small. I am debating on trying it on an uncut used drum and running a...

    i keep burning 2nd

    That had crossed my mind but I did not want to drive the bushings out because I did not have new ones at the time. The only way I checked the diameter of the drum was wrap the band around it and squeeze it together. There was still a gap between the ends but not as big as I would have liked. I...

    i keep burning 2nd

    With cones in the bushing bores No I did not. I watched both go away as it turned..... I do not remember as it was over 6 months ago. Probably too much. I want to say .030. I could be way off. Never checked. The only manual I have is CKs. I may be wrong but I do not remember a spec listed for...

    i keep burning 2nd

    How do you do that? Shifts at light load would be harsh right? I'll do that as soon as I can get it out of the corner of the shop. The drum was not too bad. There was a small spot on the band that wore through to the steel and scratched it. I turned it on a brake lathe. I bought the drum...

    2004r billet forward drum, CK recalibration kit, bigger 200 servo, dual fed. Its behind a mild small block chevy 400. The transmission worked great after I rebuilt it earlier last year. Up until I overheated the tranny to the point it was puking out oil on the freeway. On a forced downshift to...

    ck direct piston question

    Does the forward drum have to be ground down to use CKs direct piston? I am sure he told me when I bought it, but its been a while.

    bent forward piston. Is aluminum piston ok?

    So on my first 2004r build I put a bearing in backwards and cut a sealing ring on the input shaft. The forward clutches burned and the piston got bent. I have a spare aluminum piston but it has two holes in it. Is it ok run it like that? Or should i plug them? The transmission is dual fed and...
