i hope i have this in the right place, if not i apologise, i pulled my pan to adjust the low, reverse band.[looked thru lots of threads here and thought i would give this a try, nothing to lose], and the rocker arm the adjustment bolt is screwed into moves about an inch or so on its axcess, not worn and wobbly just, like the piston that moves it is stuck upwards, any help would be appeciated, gotta go to my sons football game in the morning and i kinda need my truck, thanks in advance

 

Thank the Hammer man.

 

thanks alot,im still tryin to figure this out, its the first forum ive been on and i kinda get lost. thanks Hammer

 

this is not a very hepful forum, 25 people look at this thread and not a one can chime in with any info

 

This is a very helpful forum, The right people have simply not veiwed this thread yet. If you want decent help be patient and nice and you'll get it.

Sorry but i have no experiance adjusting bands. Wish i could help but i cant.

 

i apologize, kinda need help here, and all my threads get pushed about 6 to 10 pages back and no one looks at them and im in a tight spot.

 

rear band is:
46re transmission --- tighten to 72 in-lbs, back off 2 turns
47re transmission --- tighten to 72 in-lbs, back off 3 turns

those numbers are straight out of the haynes manual. go pick one up from a parts store and you won't regret it.

i can't remember which transmission the 2500 v10 has in it.
mark your socket and the transmission with a sharpie so you get the correct # of turns.

if you tighten it too much then the reverse band will dig into the drum and that will destroy it. its better to be too loose than too tight.

 

Also, there is a lock nut on the adjustment screw. You have to hold the lock nut with a wrench while you adjust the center screw with a torque wrench and back it off the 2 or 3 turns.

 

i forgot that part.
love the new sig pic btw. are those prairie dogs?

 

supposed to be squirrels, but it's a bit cartoonish, so it's hard to tell.
