How much free play should the low reverse lever have when adjusted to the factory setting of 2 turns out from 72 in/lb? With new band and a superior brand super servo I only have about 3/16".
Also does changing the lever from a 2.5 to a 3.2 in the front band change the number of turns out on the front band adjustment spec?
Much new, but basically stock. Mostly had to replace all the clutches and steels ("forward" clutch smoked) both bands, forward clutch drum/ scored, plastic spacer in forward clutch melted, all brass, all thrust bearings, but added sonnax/superior super servos and billet accumulator with dual seal rings, a few minor upgrades in the valve body like the transgo throttle plug, etc. I've never had to spend as much on a 46re overhaul as I had to spend on replacing parts in this one
also replaced the receiver for the OD clutch piston, both sprags, (one in od and one on rear of front case) the od piston, the front clutch piston, the Belleville spring In the "forward" clutch. 300k on the trans refreshed by me 60-70k ago, and had been rebuilt at least once before I owned it (I bought at 214k)
