727 BELLEVILLE SPRING - BILLET PISTON - REBUILDING TIPS & FIXS 

Amazing video John. What a breath of fresh air to hear you explain how this all works together and what to do to fix this common problem. Love your in depth and thorough method and style. Thumbs up 👍👍

Nice to see someone that has quality parts!

You did a great job explaining it all thank you John.

Love the how to videos John keep them coming!Need all the help I can get installing crt parts in my 727.

Another most excellent video, John! Keep this type of info coming!

I tore down a 96-97 47RE and found the thicker Belelville spring and the taller piston. Subbed the whole set-up into my 1971 727......No endplay.

Glad i saw this.. i'm doing my trans right now and that endplay was worrying me a bit.. My trans is a '62 that had zero endplay when i took it apart and i am swapping to a 24spline input shaft which felt sloppy.. gonna take it apart and check this and make sure i didn't switch pistons by accident. P.S. Bought a billet reverse/low piston from another company, that was a mistake.. :( The directions make no sense at all.. and i have no faith in the part now.. lesson learned.

thank you john .this comes at the perfect time.!

Glad I watched this, this morning i thought mine seamed like a lot of play, i ended up having .054 with .785 pump, looks like I'll need to add to my order lol.

Excellent info here, thanks John!

YesSir....🔥🔥🔥 Great info

Great information, thanks !

my 1994 47RH behind my cummins had the beefy belleville from factory👍 I have heard the 1994-1995 47rh had the good springs.

Thanks for the video I subscribed.

Thanks for the videos John. I've been a machinist for 29 years so you know where my mind is going! If I want a billet spring and have the large piston or want a new billet piston can I throw these bad boys in my lathe to get the clearance I need, have you ever done this? Thanks

Can the billet pistons be machined down for proper spacing with the available Belleville spring?

👍👍second that...thank u👍👍👊

Great tech as always. Quick clarification question? What forward drum clutch clearance do you recommend? At 25:50, I thought I heard 0.020-0.030", then at 26:25 you mentioned 0.030"-0.040". Thanks!

Are new later-style springs any good? Looks like several place sell them, including TSR.

What if the early spring and the 374 piston give an acceptable clearance? Is it ok to use that way? I have one on the bench now that had .035” with the 212 piston but with the 374 it seems to be perfect. Thanks for the tech!

Can you use a 47/48 front/rear drum in a 46 transmission? Wouldn't that be heavier duty?

How much play can I have if it is a stock transmission?

Sloppier than a Whaaaaat ? 😂😂
