Retaining ring AOD [5] input shaft

Retaining ring AOD [5] input shaft Package Quantity: 5 Direct Drum Shaft In vehicles with an AOD transmission, the direct drum splines can wear, causing the direct drumshaft to contact the output shaft and shut off lube flow. The late shaft design allows the Sonnax retaining ring 76811-01K to fit into the OE groove. The early shaft design requires a groove to be machined to accept the retaining ring. The shaft has been depth hardened sufficiently from OE to ensure strength after machining. Late-model shaft requires no modifications. Early-style shafts will require machining a ring groove. Prevents lube flow shut-off. Salvages drums with worn splines. Symptoms: Restricted lube flow Cause: Spline wear causes the direct drumshaft to contact the output shaft and shut off lube flow. Correction: This retaining ring fit prevents the direct drum shaft from moving backward and contacting the output shaftand shutting off lube flow.
