Calling all 700R4 Experts!

[mister.freeze]

WELL, I’ve not refuted or argued anything, only shared my experiences and the results of all that has been done. It has in fact been rebuilt by different transmission shops as I’ve lived and moved around. The cabling and bracketry are the result of those ‘experts.’ Naturally, I want the simplest and least expensive solution. This is my daily driver and I have neither the time nor money to have another shop just do what others have done before. Nobody, yet, understandably, has committed to one solution or other, like the governor or TV.

Regarding the cable: i took it off thinking it was binding inside or otherwise worn out. The new one I bought was wrong. The old one moved freely and was not otherwise compromised. So I reinstalled it. It was kind difficult, resulting in me repeatedly tugging on the end inside the transmission to hook it to the cable. The next day is when 4th gear reappeared. It has since gone away, despite the geometry-correcting bracket still being on there. That means the bracket didn’t change anything.

Fancy switch is for the converter lockup. That has never been an issue.
