reverse band adjustment 120-130 1967

It depends on the age of the car. On 2 door cars with chassis #93547 and 4 door with 170430 onwards there is a rubber plug in the body tunnel.

The adjuster is on the right hand side of the box facing upwards.


slacken the locknut, tighten the adjuster to 10lb/ft, back off one turn, re-tighten lock nut.


Regards


Pete (who just cribbed this from the factory manual)


Incidentally no drive in reverse, or engine braking in L1 ( there is engine braking in reverse) Means the rear band is not operating.

No drive in reverse, or engine braking in L1. takes off in second in D and L Means 1-2 shift valve seized open.


Slip, judder squawk on take of in R possibly affecting D3 Means rear clutch plates worn or low pressure.


No R or judder in R Means seized or partially seized front clutch
