Q: did it occur to you that there could be multiple problems yes it had. a loose front band in conjunction with a faulty front clutch would explain the symptoms as would a clogged filter. true. a slipping rear clutch would affect 1st gear also. yup. but gear reduction make it such that the slipping will occur in situations with less mechanical advantage.... say 2nd or 3rd range. but in this case reverse was not slipping thus indicating that the 2-3 shift problem was either delayed band release or rear clutch slipping. it could be both but it wont be the front clutch because its doing fine in the reverse range. it could be a clogged filter but.... in a 3spd at if the filter is clogged something had to clog it.... like clutch facing material. ill stand by my long distance diagnosis until further facts about the trans in question come in. perhaps instead of attacking me you should attempt to help someone. -- max join www.devilbrad.com and find out what free exchange of info is all about. there are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty soap ballot jury and ammo. please use in that order. -ed howdershelt author since the op notes that its starting to slip on the 1-2 shift as well i meant to say rear clutch pack. the front clutch pack would have nothing to do with the 1-2 shift slipping. did it occur to you that there could be multiple problems a loose front band in conjunction with a faulty front clutch would explain the symptoms as would a clogged filter. a slipping rear clutch would affect 1st gear also. further if the front pack were slipping hed have said something about reverse slipping not clunking. a front clutch that slips at normal forward line pressure will often engage in reverse because the line pressure increases by a factor of three or more in reverse. of course you already knew that this could also explain the clunk a leaking clutch would tend to apply suddenly rather than smoothly. i would recommend the op remove the pan check the filter and adjust both bands. try adjusting the front band. if that doesnt do it and im guessing it wont your rear clutch pack is worn. . of course you meant to say front clutch pack. ive been having some issues with the automatic transmission on my 96 dodge van recently. it has a v8 motor with a 3 speed automatic transmission and ac. the transmission seems to slip when going into the top gear the slip seems to start around 28-30 mph and it doesnt fully engage until around 38-40 mph lifting my foot from the gas seems to help the shift. it has also started to slip a little when going from 1st to second gear and will occasionally clunk into reverse when i shift. ive checked the tranny fluid and it seems to be at or near the correct level. can anyone suggest what the problem might be best regards. bed .

but in this case reverse was not slipping thus indicating that the 2-3 shift problem was either delayed band release or rear clutch slipping. if the rear clutch was slipping it would become apparent as road speed increased but the op only mentioned slippage at the shift not after the shift was completed. it could be both but it wont be the front clutch because its doing fine in the reverse range. you chose to ignore my observation that greatly increased line pressure in reverse could explain why the clutch would slip at engagement with 60 psi in a forward mode and engage firmly at a line pressure of 200 psi plus in reverse. also load and road speed in reverse is generally much lower than in the forward gears. it could be a clogged filter but.... in a 3spd at if the filter is clogged something had to clog it.... like clutch facing material. never said otherwise. the clogged filter would limit volume and pressure thus ill stand by my long distance diagnosis until further facts about the trans in question come in. perhaps instead of attacking me you should attempt to help someone. attacking you disagreement is an attack im merely offering alternatives to your diagnosis; when i att

thanks! thats got great instructions. ed h. wrote 99 ram 1500 im thinking of swapping the circuits for the power windows and power seat so that the windows go up and down and the seat does not move with the ignition off by running short jumper wires between the respective circuit breakers in the drivers side fuse/junction block location. they are both 20 amp breakers. the way i envision the setup is to have the circuit breakers out of their normal location with jumper wires running to the junction block connections. that has been done before and it works. read http//www.dodgeram.org/tech/mods/electric/windowpower.htm -- ken .
