Need Servo Help ASAP

[700 sportsman]

Well the pay pal payment to the guy got messed up, but I got a new cover and snap ring from a trans. shop and I busted the whole face of the cover off, and I was left with a ring of the bottom of the cover where it made contact and was so corroded it wasn't funny, so then I had to use a drill and a dremel tool to weaken that area, and I beat it, used a punch, chisel, prybar, and drilled some more, and then the FWONKER finally cracked and came out, I have pictures of the corrosion, I about shat my pants when I saw all the corrosion. In the process of removing the top cover I got into the 4th apply piston, so I'm gunna have to wait till monday and run back to the trans. shop and get a new one.

I'll post pics when I get the parts I have switched onto the pin, and I'm gunna change the water pump today too

Good deal Tyler, at least it's progress. Maybe not the kind you were hoping for but it is progress.

Sounds like things are coming along.

Crieps, what the hell happened to that transmission to make it hate you so much?

 

[66nova]

Atleast you made progress! Sucks that it was such a pain, but it will be worth it

Ok, here's the pics of the carnage. This better make one hell of a difference for all the trouble it's caused me. But as a side note, this was my grandfathers truck, and he passed away in 01 and it has been sitting ever since, and was only drive maybe once or twice a month tops, so I think the sitting allowed the cover to corrode so badly.

Look at all the oxidation around the snap ring groove:

Good lord! I'm glad the only problem I had with mine was getting the snap ring back in during re-assembly. That truck has probly seen many salty winters, plus the age (its a 96 right?) was a BAD combo for all that corrosion to form.

Yep it's a '96, but it hasn't seen a winter since 01, and wasn't driven much in the winters since it was new, but all that sitting sure did a number on it
