| Post subject: | band adjustment for 63 904 |
Hey folks, I checked the tranny FAQ to find out how many turns to set the bands for my 63 904 with a shift kit but they don't list my year. youtube shows 4 and 2.5 but doesnt say which year or if a shift kit changes that. Does anyone have that info they can provide? Thanks John Torque* 1971-1973 Torque to 72 in-lbs 1974-1983 Torque to 41 in-lbs 1984 and later Torque to 72 in-lbs Number of turns to back adjuster off Kickdown Band A904 1971-1979 2 Turns 1980 on 2-1/2 Turns A727 1971-1978 440 Dual Exhaust 2 Turns All others 2-1/2 Turns Low Reverse Band A904 Slant Six engine 1971-1973 3-1/4 Turns |

A shift kit doesn't change the adjustment specs for the bands, unless the kit came with a new/different intermidiate (second gear-front) band actuator lever. I think the stock units had a 2.5 to 1 ratio. Performance units were 3.8, 4.2 or 5.0 to 1, which allowed the servo to apply more clamping force to the band, but it had to travel farther to do that. Those needed different amounts of adjustment to work properly & not slip or drag. If it's stock lever, use VDart's numbers, they're the same as my 63 svc manual. |

Added the '62 Information to the Band Adjustment link in the FAQ. I need to clean that up and get it in chronological order. If anyone can add more years and specs, PM me, and I will get them in there. Thank you! CJ |
