ok so my trans would not spin when mounted to adapter and tcase

unbolted t case from adapter still not spin then unbolted trans and adapter then it spins wtf?

 

[big83chevy4x4]

do you have a gasket between the adapter and the tranny?

i think they are a 3/8" bolt like 1 1/4" long, its been a long time since i had one out, so im not exactly sure.

 

[ProJunkRacing]

i could not find a gasket any ideas where to get one?

 

[GotBoykins]

They are two diffente lengths. The ones that go into the tcase are about .250 longer than the xmsn ones. If you need pics I can oblige.

You need to run a factory width gasket between the adaptor and tranny. They work like a shim to pre-load the bearings. No gasket = tons of load on the bearings and thats why you can't turn them by hand.

DANG!! I have a folder with all the part number post printed out, didnt even think to look there.

i just made my own gasket from the old crusty piece traced onto roll gasket material. then spent 30 minutes cutting it out with an xacto knife.
i kept the old gasket and have extra roll stuff, if you like i could trace another and mail it to you.

link didnt work

 

[ProJunkRacing]

so these are right then?

crap it charges me for 5 gaskets i dont need 5

which is which gasket

 

[6.2puller]

that part number should be good at your local GM dealer also so you can get one and see that it is the right side of the adaptor.

The link wasn't really a link. The new forum software isn't allowing cut and paste (atleast not with firefox) so I use the attach link to cut and past.
Saves typing.

GM package quantities... since no dealer is going to stock it, you're probably stuck with buying 5.

 

[ProJunkRacing]

and other ideas where i can get it at?

 

[ProJunkRacing]

any ideas which gasket number is which or do i honestly need both of them?
