Billboost: Update = Got the engine all set up, took down the frame, and took the side of the trans off. Outside issues came up didnt have time for anything else... waiting for gear to show up in the mail. Thanks again.

Sounds like some good progress. Make sure to use the info in the how to so you don't pull the valve body and channel plate apart. That'll save you a ton of time.
So we have it out, putting in the new one... It doesn't go in all that far... Doesn't feel like it grabs a whole lot of that gear shaft. Did yours barely catch billboost? What did that old one do to the female end? Just wondering befor we. Close it up.
Billboost- We can pull it out ever so slightly like, an 1/8 inch... And it starts to spin like before. We are a little concerned that's all. He's wondering if the opposite end may have stripped too.
No the other splines don't strip, at least I've never seen it happen and I've seen some seriously hammered shafts, never heard of it etiher.
Old one was stripped about an inch right? Put the new one in.. wiggle..get it to work and put it back together, shouldn't be an issue.
Billboost- Ok we will do that and yes your right... about an inch was stripped off. So what your saying is the barely new one sitting in there just barely grabbing by about an 1/8" is how yours was? it just doesnt feel right... but if you say so. just wished it grabbed the new hub spline a little more thats all.
You don't know what it grabs or doesn't grab.. It feels like it's grabbing.. but what if the clutch that engages it..isn't currently engaged and that is just it sitting all the way in.
Put it in..smile when it works, don't hate me if it doesn't..cause you'd be a first.
I believe ya. I will do! Thanks a lot. Keep ya posted!
You'll be smiling soon enough. Been there..second guessed many things in my time.
One more thing... any torque specs for all the bolts??? Or just tighten them bu hand?
bad ass!
Oh ... gesus..
Hold up..
The three 10's on the right side of the channel plate are 13 ft lbs.. along with the 13 on the valve body and one 10mm at the top of the VB..
Billboost- everything together... Doesn't work... Still getting a weird humming sound in 4th. It's still doing the same thing as before. Must be the female side? Hmmmm... Depressed.
clutches looked pretty good. my pops has seen those plenty of times. we hooked the computer up and it read that the tcc dc short volt was off. picked up a new tcc solenoid and going to tear it back down and put that in. from what ive read, the solenoid runs the fluid that goes to the torque converter which is possibly why the torque converter isnt allowing the trans to go into the overdrive/ lockup. its getting rough and tiring. i hope this is it.
Lockup is different than 4th gear. It doesn't cause you to not go into 4th. All TCC does is drop rpm that extra 200-500 rpm.
I believe we had it go into 4th it just isnt dropping rpms. Its still at 3000rpm and still making that winding noise like before. The winding noise worries me. I also find it odd that the TCC shows volt is off. Have you ever ran into this issue by chance? The 4th gear hub definitely needed to be swapped so at least thats done. Just dont know why its still not working.
Did you have any change from before the hub to after? RPM should have dropped and there should have been a difference. If not then something else is going on and replacing a TCC soleniod isn't going to fix it all. I have had to wiggle the hub and wasn't sure exactly what it sat inside so turning might be normal until a point. However I've also never seen the part it slides into strip out either.
I do think you are having some issues. Whining BTW is typically the pump starving for fluid or having trouble pumping fluid.
It really doesn't seem to have a change from before the hub swap... regardless it needed a new one. Pops thinks its the female end but I told him you have never seen that happen before so.... I think you are correct about the whining noise.... it probably is starving for fluid and from my research, the pump can get starved if the TCC Solenoid is not working and the computer shows that it is not working. So weird.
