KEN'S 700R TRANSMISSION

This is your rear planetary set that gives you gear reduction in Low and Reverse. Se the old rust on it? This was a "bin" part that Al had lying around and he put it in the truck. It also ONLY has 4 (four) gears, or pinions as they are called. This is passenger-car parts!




















Here we can see the previous grenade-effect from the rear planetary set blowing up and shrapnelling the sun drum.




















Here you can see the wave washer that is installed in the Low/Reverse clutch pack to take the sudden shock that you feel in the seat of the pants...not a problem really, but this trans had the anti-abuse accumulator in the valve body and it's not good to double up on the softening effect they can both do independently. I am going to leave this wave plate out.
