    New Production 6.2L/700R4 TV Brackets (Interested?)

    I love fusion360. I learned sketchup first but lost touch with it over time. I then learned 360 and I can say hands down 360 is more intuitive and better overall 3D modeling software in my experience. They have lots of training videos. I do not think you will regret trying it.

    New Production 6.2L/700R4 TV Brackets (Interested?)

    If you are strapped for time I am more than happy to make up a model for you. I would just need the dimensions and a few pictures. Otherwise I would love any sort of model to send to my printer when you do have time.

    New Production 6.2L/700R4 TV Brackets (Interested?)

    I need dimensions and a couple pictures so I can make a 3d model then proceed to 3d print a few. I need one myself but can't find one to dimension. Did you happen to model yours?

    What is going on with this Flexplate? Out of round and bent? Yikes...

    Well he took it in Tuesday night and handed it back to me Yesterday after work. He said he tried to find what caused the flexplate to warp or bend the way it did but nothing was missing or out of place. The plate that was on it was he same as the one linked to Rock Auto, I didn't count teethe...

    You may have gotten dmetalmiki and I mixed up haha, he was saying I am doing too much legwork to figure this out when I should have just taken it back and said "fix it". I appreciate the info you have given me thus far. I would have been fine sticking with the TH400 but those 4.56 gears are...

    The flex plate on it now has weight on it. I think he replaced it because its on the invoice but who knows. Everyone around this area swears by this place for the same reason. Done it forever and always quality work... until I bring in military truck and want a swap done haha. Ill have to find...

    The TC is only 3 bolts... the pic has model number GM18A. Should the TC for a 700r4 be 6 bolts?

    No kidding, worst time to be without haha. I thought the spacer thing was a line of BS but what do I know. We will see how it goes when I bring in the new flexplate.

    Got truck back in. Had the the bell housing cover off and started the truck for him. The flex plate is wobbling all over. He said to order the new one (14077158 posted by Chaski above) and he will swap it out for me. When asked about the washers he said there has to be a certain amount of gap...

    Ok broke off from my wifes car for 5 minutes and took a couple pics. Doesn't look cracked, does look new(er?). Flexplate has 6 holes for a torque converter but 3 are used. The one pic looks like the bolt/washer are off center. Also the spacers used look like run of the mill washers. I noticed...

    Thanks everyone for the information. I didn't get even 10 minutes to go out and check anything tonight. I know all 3 bolts have washers and I remember counting 3 bolts because I thought washers for spacing was odd. Tomorrow I have a lot on my plate again but hope to at least crawl under and...

    I know he used a diesel torque converter. Never asked about the flex plate, ignorant of it at the time

    Hmm... have to count when I get home, but I would guess 3 because I don't recall seeing that many.

    Added video link. Thats what I am fearing. Knowing he had to put a new plate on to do the swap, It would blow my mind that it would crack so soon. I will have to investigate but ran out of time. I would like to call the shop and see what they say before I take it apart.

    Local trans shop did a 700r4 swap a little over a year ago. Truck has maybe 1000 miles on it since. Over that past year I have been chasing down a vibration above 50 mph. Along the road I had the starter fail to engage and grind a couple times. Last week I was changing motor/trans mounts to poly...

    M1008 Rubber Fuel Hoses Sizes Lengths and Clear Poly Replacement

    A bit late but if you don't think driving out my way is too far (HA!), I would weld it up for free. Again its probably too late but if you are using a 75/25 Co2/Argon mix or equivalent shielding gas for your MIG you can do pulsed stacks to fill the hole. 3/8" isn't all that large so simply make...
