904 Transmission Stopped Going Into Gear

Back in about 1981 I bought two Ford C6 pump bushings because I wanted to install one into a th350 direct drum because it was wider. I took it to a machine shop to pay an expert to press it in. I said here I have two. He said he just needed the one. Couple minutes later he came back asking for the second one. I never paid anybody to mess up bushings for me after that. Truth is, If you want to install bushings, make sure you have plenty of extra on hand. Because now you have a messed up bushing that needs to be removed and replaced but you had only the one. If the bushing has binding areas; that means it also has areas that won't even touch the pump. See, this is why I said before to leave the bushings alone unless they're really destroyed; but in which case, the journal on the hard part would probably also be worn; requiring replacement. I buy bushings by the ten pack now. I mess one up every once in a while but I never try to save it. It goes into the trash; just like that one in your direct drum should. Because it will wear out in short order and be a lot looser than the old one you removed. (Others' results may vary..)
