Hello, Do you know if anyone sells new Separator Plates for the 2004R. I want to do some testing and I have not found a way to make my holes smaller :) Thanks, John B

Hello, I was enlarging the the front pump seal return passage to a quarter inch and I cut into the pump area. It looks like it is on the exhaust side of the rotor which would drain back in to case, but I would like double check this. Thanks, John B

Everything was dead on and then I made a stupid mistake and pressed out the front bearing in the wrong direction ( stupid stupid me) and broke the pump lip. Now I had to buy a new pump and hope that the slide and rotor is the same as the new billet rotor that I paid over 100 dollars for...

Where did u get the pins. I tapped one out and it mic out at .393? Thanks

Thanks, I just ordered the harden pin front and rear Carriers from Extreme Automatics. That should make me feel a little better and a little poorer :)

The pump vane is .7078 and the slide is .7074 without the oil seal ring installed and they rotate freely in the pump housing. (I do not have a depth gauge that accurate), but I think I should be good?

And here it the start of the 2004r project..

Here is a list of parts so far :) Billet Overdrive Carrier $139.99 Upgraded Lockup Solenoid $21.87 #4 Pump Selective Washer $13.00 Rollerize Rear Internal Gear $39.99 10 vane Pump kit $24.99 hardened Sunshell $20.89 Rollerized Center Support $39.99 Transgo Shift Kit $129.95 rollerized L/R...

Thank you all for the feedback. I have over 1,200 dollars in hard parts to make this transmission live behind 450 ft lbs of torque and it would be sad to ruin the trans with weak components John B

What are the symptoms of too much end play?

Hello, I cannot find a rear carrier assembly that does not have pinion end play over .027" The best one I have is at .033. Is this exceptable ? Thanks... JB
