On the 727's I have done, the input shaft splines are a light press fit into the clutch hub (no play); plus the retaining ring.



Retaining ring in intact. I can move the input fore and aft with respect to the hub, but very little.

OK, so it slides axially on the splines, not play in the rotation (torque).

It is common for the clutch hub to have play in the outer retainer (snap ring), but I haven't seen the splines get loose.


No, there is also some small play rotationally. I can feel it and also see is move with resect to the hub. I'm starting to guess if it was like this before OR if it will get worse.

If you can rotate it I would call it junk. The shaft is a light press into the hub , if you pull the ring I wouldn't be surprised if the shaft pulled out by hand which is not good .

Get a new input assembly and be done .
