...they came out of a fire, which basically they did due to the heat generated since they were slipping. Also any steels that came out of this clutch pack would be thrown out. I see now I forgot to show you the steels. Well that will be for tomorrow then. Heres some close-up pictures of the...

...seals and bushings and thrust washers and on and on ! All still sealed NOS parts ! It drives me crazy sometimes what I could have had. That M5 oil pan I posted came from there. I only got it for a novelty. Also the "bronze" clutch plates. I better stop, I'm getting seriously depressed right now.

...you oil pan cooler. Also more importantly it will keep small coolant leaks from contaminating the transmission fluid which destroys friction clutch plates. Every oil pan I have taken off has these two holes plugged up. Almost everyone needed "drilling" to remove the crud. Also speaking on...

...removed. The next thing to do is apply pressure to the back of the drum assembly. This allows you to remove the large snap ring holding in the clutch plates. After the snap rings are removed from both drums you will need to give them a good "smack" with a deadblow hammer shown here. The...

...the bottom with a dead blow hammer then attache the crane and smacking the bottom and the output shaft lift off the assembly. The "reverse clutch cone" will just lift out with a little persuasion. At this point I usually remove the oil pan. The bolts can be a little fun removing. Half of...

...the 6 bolts and taking off the "internal gear" and the bronze and steel plates with springs is pretty straight forward. Now your down to the clutch drum assembly. There is a snap ring which needs to come off then the rest of the assembly will come right off. I see I forgot to take pictures...

...of what you'll see ? You spent time with your father, that's great. But your father was not operating the truck properly if he never used the clutch. You cannot blame him though as they didn't have the schools back then. So you learned to drive from your father then. You didn't go to a...

Did you go to the website I posted ? This is "EATON's" site. The manufacturer of the transmission. They say use the clutch ! Go to the site, look at the video's posted and then come back here and tell me why I'm wrong to say "use the clutch" . The "stories" or "MYTHS" about all the truckers...

Evidently you never took EATON/Fuller's advice on how to use their transmissions. No one said you needed to "double clutch" the Deuce transmission. Just use the clutch to shift.

...for a reason. This allows the smooth shifting they are known for. But for all there upgrades the manufacturer still says you are to "Double Clutch" their transmission. Don't believe me ? Than look at this video on "EATON's" wedsite. RT-18 manual transmission | 18-speed transmission| Eaton...

...the gears!" They always were bragging about their skill in shifting the transmission so "smoothly" . Most all professional truckers use the clutch, especially if their split shifting. That is why all big transmissions have a "clutch brake" which acts like a input shaft brake, built in. It's...

...make this noise again do this check. Make sure the park brake is on. Check your transmission oil level. Then start up your truck. Push in the clutch and put the transmission in first gear. With the clutch fully depressed, does the noise get louder or changes ? If so than the throw-out bearing...

...align up. If they don't then you could have bad torque rods or other serious suspension issues. Once the engine is started check the clutch and transmission and transfer-case. Check to make sure your alternator is charging. I also like to have a good cab, so I check for rust and door...

Glad to help. Now about the cone clutch. Yes, they are as hard to find as "hens teeth" . I never saw anyone resurface one as you would also need to resurface the not only the aluminum cone but the housing as well. That would make your clearances a problem. The seal could be changed out to a...

Our Deuce already has a "SAE" adapter for the Spicer transmission. That is how my Allison will adapt to the engine. The problem is the "flywheel" which I have. It was designed to fit the Allison 540 transmission which corresponds to the Allison 1000/2000 transmission. I was going to have my...

Hey M1010plowboy, how you doing ? The problem with the old dual range hydro's wasn't so much the valve bodies since they are extremely simple but the many lines and servo's used in this transmission. The rear band servo holds almost a half a quart of fluid in itself ! Then there is the rear pump...

OK I know this sounds weird but, do you have the older style transfer-case ? If you do, then you could have a bind-up with the over-running clutch. This can cause all kinds of problems, including ones that look at first glance like a bad clutch. It can also cause the truck to not move, like the...

Yes. With the torque converter "lock-up" clutch engaged you're basically acting like a manual clutch. Since all the newer Allisons lock-up the torque converter in third gear (some will lock-up earlier if manual mode is selected) their basically an automatic "manual" transmission for the rest of...

...fortune to buy or rebuild and take a week to rebuild. I know as I have rebuilt them. They also don't last that long either. As far as the clutch material in an automatic transmission go's, they are all made from special synthetic fibers. There are no paper clutches anymore. Having been in the...

Driving in snow with an "automatic" transmission-ed vehicle is always easier. You don't get what I call the "clutch factor" . Thats the extra torque to the rear axle due to reving up the engine to allow the time to shift gears and still keep speed up and the jerking it always causes. I don't...
