There is the band bolt and there is the locking bolt. Yes, 720 degree's, then an additional 315 degrees. The pitch of the bolt threads will determine the proper gap spacing after you "go back". Then tighten the locking bolt to the specified torque.

Default might be a little late

if u adjuted the band,and changed the fluid,and it helped that is great.i hope all thet was for no sugnificant change.now,here is a good idea also,didnt look to see where you are from,so dont really know how cold it gets,or if u warm your truck up,rather than just jumpin in and takin off.but here is a suggestion,if you warm ur truck up,or u sit at an idle,like for instance in a parkin lot,put the transmission in neutral instead of park.in rear wheel drive mopar transmissions,the transmission pump does not pump in park,only in neutral and in gear.alot of people dont know that,and after years of being warmed up in park fluid gets schorched,parts get burnt up,basically transmission failure,just a little tip,that will help get a little more life out of your tranny.
