Rebuilt 904 w/ tf2 shifting woes...

67 posts and still no closer to a solution? See, this is what happens when you throw terminology around like "stock, factory specs, spooling", and there are several more in this thread..

We are closer to a solution :thumbsup: the car is driving much better now. 1-2nd shift under normal throttle is roughly 18mph, 2nd-3rd shift is roughly 30mph. The word "spooling" is a nice descriptive word to describe what the transmission was doing before shifting into 3rd. The 1-2nd shift is still soft, and the 2nd-3rd is softer as well, but this is under normal throttle, I haven't really laid into the throttle yet as I haven't gotten to drive the car since Sunday evening.

I dont have a transmission book to tell you what the factory specs of the clutch packs should be... let me Google the factory clearances and ill post the range mine were in...

I think these are them, the #s sound about right found on Moparts. "(the one @ the rear) - .028"-.034"

High gear clutch pack - .060"-.070""

The rebuild kit I used was a "stock" 904tf rebuild kit with thin discs.

I wish I had 100% correct terminology all of the time but unfortunately I dont. I also can't work on the car every day due to school and family. Heck yesterday I took my licensure exam...
