Easiest 727/904 rebuild thread...
So next is taking the pan off the bottom just half inch bolts. Then I use the 4x4 post to lay it back on so it's facing the pan upwards. Then the 10 7/16 bolts to get the valve body off. There's three flat head screws holding the filter on but I just left it on at this point. These are identical in both 904s and 727s. I just left the bolts right in it picked it up out of there and put it in the pan for now.. also once that comes off I've got my finger pointing at the parking for all that goes inside the tail housing. That slides out but first you pull the pull up on it a little bit to get the shifter post out. Now this exposes the center accumulator and it's spring sometimes it has a spring sometimes it doesn't. Bag and tag it.. also a picture of my coffee can full of used gloves and my brand new gloves my favorite harbor freight kind. The black ones are a little too thick and you only get 50 per box for the same amount of money these blue ones are a little thinner but you get 100 per box and you can see any dirt that you're taking off of anything on your gloves. I keep the old ones for taking stuff apart like this that made it through the first wearing and of course brand new gloves on all new assembly and cleaning...
