There is a snap ring that goes in the case above the pressure plate pictured. The splined case luges here in the case are one of the weak points of a T-400, high line pressure, harsh shift calibration, and fatigue cause the lugs to break here. TransGo kits contain a heavy snap ring to help this, I use a center support snap ring from a 2004R. Some performance vendors sell a brace that helps prevent case lug breakage. |
