Ok off topic, but what got into or was put in the trans to contaminate it? Why?

Did a water get in it from a cooler line?





No clue. It was purchased with a bad transmission. I towed it home for him.

We went through the transmission and replaced every wear part and seal. The cooler lines were replaced as was the cooler itself. The heat exchanged on the engine was thoroughly flushed.

The new transmission fluid is still clean.

Here's a pic showing what the planetaries looked like before and after cleaning.


We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.
