I have no idea how to air test my clutch packs, do you have more info on that??? Through the hole between the sealing ring grooves. A whole set of bearings is not that expensive and would be good insurance. Does anyone know where I apply air? The tab on the bearing may be keeping it from sitting flat against the case.

Close inspection is required to ensure that all transmission parts are either replaced or repaired as needed and that all required repairs are made to the system as a whole. A good set of snap ring tools are needed. But then I got it installed and i'm up to putting the snap ring onto the output shaft before I ran into another problem. This trans had 150k on it and was slipping while shifting. Beefing one up requires even more patience and skill in these areas.
