Hi Jon,

Boy, we're just disagreeing' all over the place, but that's okay, it would be a very dull world if we all thought alike.

About that 350 crackin' the case. Sure wasn't from pressure that's for sure and this is because of two reasons: that regulator dumps at 62 lbs (or thereabouts) thru a port as big as your manhood. When cold, getting oil thru that paper filter is a task in it'self and applying the low/reverse clutch when cold is always “slow” because of this ‘lower’ pressure.

Regulated pressure will not run higher than rated line pressure, no matter the temp, because if it did you would never have a shift. This is how the silly things work.

Trucks were very hard on that anti-clunk spring allowing it to "work". This wore the case away at the center support’s indexing land. Soon, the snap ring could no longer hold the center support in place and bang, there she goes.

Also, most of the cracked 4x4 cases were because that big strut rod was not in place. Hit a restriction or a hole with that right front wheel and and you’ve got that front drive shaft right in the tranny’s lap. It had to crack, no way around it.

Just my next disagreement, have a good one, :>)

Allan
