Complete Fuild Change....

[klcammie]

Currently running Delo 15-40 for engine, have used Wally world Super tech 15-40 with good results, change oil at 5k. Use Red Line fluids in tran [6sp] transfer and axles. This year time to do brake and ps fluid.

Well finally got the oil and diff fluid changed today. I used valvoline premium blue 15-40 and valvoline 74-140 synthetic gear oil. Oil wasn't bad but diff seemed pretty nasty. Just got my parts for the tranny. Was planning on adjusting bands but have read not to unless you are having problems. Pretty sure what the answer is going to be but..... adjust bands or.not???

Always adjust bands, i dont understand why they say not too

I say anytime you drop the transmission pan you should always adjust the bands and inspect the condition of them as well. Foolish not to adjustment them while the pan is down.

That was my thinking. I plan on doing the adjustment. Just have to remember in/lb not ft/lb

I thought I saw a write up on here somewhere about adusting the bands but couldn't find anything. I have found several other websites with info. Anybody have a link?

You could download a service manual and get the procedure on how to do it.
