Ok..I've rebuilt a transmission and overdrive to replace the one in my
BJ8..back to front..all new bearings, first gear, idler, thrust bushings etc
etc.
I pulled the existing motor/transmission out of the car today and I need to
confirm something with all you wise ones...
The old transmission with lots of miles spins freely, easy to turn. By
comparison, the rebuilt transmission is "stiff".
I'm thinking that because all of the bearings are new in the rebuilt trany,
they have not really been broken in oil circulated. But then, I have this
whisper in my ear planting seeds of doubt that perhaps, once again, I've
screwed up. That maybe the annulus brake on the overdrive is dragging or
something.
Can anybody out there give me their experience?
Thanks
Paul
