Yeah, I thought long and hard about it. It's a return to the old school. I don't have the funds for a "built" 700. I could get a 400 much cheaper, and it's already been torn down and built extra HD. We are parked in near Gatesville, on the mechanic's lot. That was a bonus for us also, otherwise...

Sorry for the late post. There has been a lot going on with my disabled wife. I decided not to get the 700 rebuilt (cost) and I never could get the cable right. I am getting a built th400 put in. There might be a couple of problems with installation, but my mechanic can handle it. What a...

Thanks, 3500! In progress. Update follows.

First pic shows arrow pointing to the metal enclosure on the back of the tv cable bracket. No adjustment tab anywhere. Third pic shows a blurry image of the metal enclosure behind the bracket.

Glad to join this forum. I am a total newb when it comes to mechanical. I recently retired with my wife to a custom built MH (I am a carpenter). We are both disabled but we travel the country as best we can. Right now we are broke down in Texas due to another transmission failure. Hope to get...

Hi all. I am new here, got a long-winded tranny problem. I have a 1987 chevy cutaway (box truck) 1 ton, 350 engine, dually. The original transmission burned up and I had to buy a used tranny (funds were non-existent) to replace it with. I have very little knowledge of transmissions, and the...
