Bob Hansen Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 After installing a used 700R4 tranny in my Blazer. I dropped the pan to change the filter I found a check ball in the pan Before I dropped the pan I had changed the throttle pressure cable from the outside, (undid the retainer bolt, pulled cable up, unhooked cable from pin, hooked new cable on, pushed it in and bolted it) Could this check ball have come from there???? Or is this just typical of my luck & the trans is probably junk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grease Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 The ball did not get lost in the cable swap. someone has had the valve body off for some reason.its hard to say where the ball is missing.there some on both sides of the spacer plate .its also possible that one was dropped while the trans was being built/rebuilt , and its just extra laying there. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hansen Posted April 30, 2005 Author Share Posted April 30, 2005 Thanks for the info Mike! Maybe I got lucky this time and it had a shift kit installed! It's a shame that the first trans couldn't hold up to an anemic 2.8L, even with the 3.73 gears, rebuilt once & failed again all within 135K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
