Rebuilding a 1968 th400 from a catalina for my 67 tempest.

Orginally this was a junkyard unit with new filter, midwest 2800 converter, deep pan with cooling tubes and b+m shift kit installed. Lasted about 2 days before i lost 3rd then second then everything.

Teaches me to cheap out again.

So i pull the trans and begin my rebuild
the th400 is hasn't been too bad to work on so far. Right now i have the planatary set assembled, and both the forward and direct clutches to together.

I'm a little confused on the sealing rings that live on the inside of the front pump and the inside the intermeadate clutch plates.

Do these usually get replaced? My kit looks like there could be some updated stile of pump ring but its weird its a little plastic lookin ring that is beveled and fits kinda loose. am i confusing some parts here? is this a revised design? Anyone run into this before re use old rings?

once i figure this out i can dump the guts back into the case and stop walking everywhere

thanks for the help guys

Brandon
