the expert on the American built auto trans.
On the bench where several Ford C6 transmission, he gave me a lesson on
the diffence between most models.

He is obtaining a price on these for me tonight and i will have them
tomorrow.
Your dwg looks to have a shaft through the sun gear, where you going to
srink fit this.

No attachment came through Don. Yep. Shrink fit and perhaps a bit of

I figure if it slips it will weld itself. Also braze is good for this sort

thing as there is lots of area to transmit the shear torque stress.
