    Trans leak up front

    Trailbeast is right on the money as is RustyRatRod. The converter hub must be as smooth as a crank journal. Any surface wear on it, etc. will cause seal/bushing failure eventually.

    I don't know where you live in the Great White North, but there are a couple of very good converter builders here in Canada that might be worth looking into. One in Brandford Ont. is SMR transmissions. Phone 888-846-6603 and out West is TCS products at 1-800-960-1177 (ask for Paul). Check out...

    Selecting Torque converter

    If my memory serves me right, the factory converter in my Duster stalled at around 2300/2400. But with that being said, it might be a wise move to contact one of the reputable converter builders and see what they say. Make sure you give them ALL THE CORRECT information on what you've done to...

    Required or . . . Crank/converter bushing

    From 1968 and up, all 904 converters had a pilot (one that goes into the crank) size of 1.810 inches From 1960 to 1967 the converter pilot size is 1.550 inch Now, I may be wrong on this, but I think that the crank for a standard transmission was different from crank for an automatic...

    oh-oh, debris!

    With that amount of debris on the filter, the converter will also be contaminated. AND not matter what anybody tells you, it would need to be taken apart and cleaned. I know your in the Netherlands, but consider getting a rebuilt converter at the same time.

    Thermoquad idling issues

    From what I saw at my customers shop, and what he told me after he got it on the engine, I don't think you can go wrong. He said that all he had to do once it was on the engine was adjust the idle. It's not inexpensive for sure, but after almost 40 years in the automotive repair industry, I've...

    904 tourqe converter question.

    Used converters are good only for two things, a core, or a door stop. Because they are a sealed unit, there is no way to tell what the internal parts are like. I seen more than my share of "Rattle Can" rebuilt converters. JMHO

    46re rebuild kit

    For 2001 - on 5-prong Rectangular Connector, rod style Sound like it. Their catalog shows part number 12410C and it is listed for 2002 and on. My catalog shows that the 5 prong style was used 2001 and on. If you contacted me when I was in the industry, I'd ask you how many pins, and supply...

    46re rebuild kit

    Go with the best parts you can afford. Getting the cheapest parts can/will lead to trouble. Make sure you get a manual on the transmission, either the ATSG or an ATRA manual. Be very cautious taking the OD section apart. There is a large HD spring compressed under the OD hub that can do you...

    904 question

    After almost 40 years in the transmission industry, calling upon all manner of transmission rebuilding facilities, I've never seen a "rebuilt 904" for 80 bucks. Oh, pardon me, there was a less than honest shop, that bought cores, stuffed them in the parts washer to clean them, changed the pan...

    Identify this converter

    The markings may or may not mean anything they could be the building companies part number. The company I worked for in the past, our part number 762 was for a 225/318 1968 and up 904, NON LOCKUP, and was a low stall (around 1900-2000 stall).

    727 Torque Converter

    I'm glad to see that you chosen the route you're going. You never mentioned if the converter you've got is yours or something you've picked up. I see the photo of a transmission with the converter attached has been removed, but I'd like to point out that the weight that is welded on to the...

    727 Torque Converter

    I'm aware that the listing for the 340 is incorrect, should have marked that in the book some time back. But seeing as it is a 360 engine, and a 79 to boot, then the listing for either the CR25L or the CR25H is correct.

    Converter ID?

    Ok, a couple of things. My converter catalog says all 360 converters from 1971 and on have either one or two weights on the engine side of the converter. In 1978, Chrysler started to use a lockup style converter with the 360 engine. They also are weighted. The 225/6 and the 318 converters...

    Flat drive torque converter rebuild advise.

    To change the hub on the converter, the converter must be cut apart. While it's apart, why not get it rebuilt or as it has been mentioned to you, contact PTC. Converters are a sealed unit, so while they may look good externally, there is no way to know the condition of it inside. Items like...

    Converter ID?

    I forgot to ask you, the converter looks like it's a used one. Do you know any history on it? Check the hub of the converter. If it isn't a smooth as a babies butt, you might want to consider not using it. Check the size of the weights on the engine side of the converter. There should be...
