Ford AOD Transmissions
|
With the AODs internal lubrication architecture, Bertrand has found that one of the most important criteria in delivering lubricant to the planetary gearset is to have endplay of the rotating assembly as little as 0.002 inch, but not exceeding 0.005 inch. Endplay is determined with a thrust washer (available in varying thicknesses) on the back face of the pump stator, as Bertrand is shown installing here. Internal lubrication is also improved by removing a check ball from the pump stator and drilling a 1/16-inch hole in one of the valvebody lands to assure adequate flow through the converter and lubrication circuit at low-engine rpm.
