The
washer under the sun gear is almost always broken. It is interesting
that the original overdrive manual says to have a sun gear float of
0.014 to 0.020, while later manuals say to use 0.008 to 0.014
Excessive end-float kills these things. The thrust surfaces get worn &
things start chucking back & forth & this is the result. The filter doesn't
get
all the fine trash out so they need regular fluid changes, especially if
they're flogged hard.
Also it's getting increasingly hard to get (good) rebuild parts nowadays.
