t-56 magnets ok i was cleaning the t-56 up getting it ready for reassembly and those magnets came out looks like it used to have sillicon that held it in place but i just want to confirm. also, since i'm here what kind of tolerances do i need to look for when putting it back together? i've seen alot of how to's for dissasembly but nothing for reassembly

Have you downloaded this T-56 repair manual yet? Seems pretty good on the reassembly how-to's and clearances:

yes the magnets are just silliconed in there since they will not stick to the aluminum naturally. just clean off the old stuff, clean the surface's real good and resillicon them in. on the clearences, the important ones are the main shaft and counter shaft end plays. there is bearings in the houseing that have shims behind them to correct this. honestly, i have done lots of these trannys and not one has been out of spec.

If you don't change the bearing & cup, you are prolly ok with the endplay.All this is covered in the manual. The silicone is used to hold the mags in place until the rear extension is installed - then they are trapped in place. The goo also keeps them from rattling.

i dont think i'm changeing any bearing they all seem to be okay. i looked int he manual and it said if i dont see signs of wear then leave it alone. actually the tranny wasnt bad the only thing was the pads came off the 3-4 shift fork so because of the extra slop when i shifted in 3rd it would lock up from it being in 2nd and 3rd at the same time. well at least thats the only theory i could come up with

RON,I hope you put a steel 3/4 fork back in with the new pads.
jr, If you took .010 shim out of the input , you measured wrong - I would be concerned that you have too much play now. I said you would most likely be ok if you do not change bearings. I said this particularly because measuring end play is not easy and is generally done incorrectly. Leaving it alone/ at the factory spec. is the best for those who don't do it every day.

when i had the trans done the first time i gave him new bearings and i'm thinking they wernt checked. w/ no shim in it came out to be .035" end play and it had a .045" shim in it hence the .010 to much..i checked w/ the dial inicator and it all works out to the spec now.
