Re: Restomod 72 K10 "Good Memories"

No updates on the 72. Slight detour. Lost 3-4 gear in my 94 DD. Was getting a flare in the shift from 2-3 for some time now and then totally lost 3-4 gear. Got trans out and found the 3-4 clutch pack was gone. Further inspection revealed a crack in the 3-4 accumulator piston. Pretty confident this is what lead to my problems. Everything else looks good. Low pressure on clutches is not a good thing. Have a rebuild kit but need to order the 3-4 piston as it seems to be not available local. Wish I could trust local shops. But will save close to 3k doing the R&R + rebuild myself. Auto trans rebuild looks intimidating but really not that bad, have done a few now.
