I’d try to follow where it’s wet. Could be out of the vent, or the front seal. There are many updated hard parts, valve body changes and clutch changes from 2011 to current. Once it fails a rebuild with updated parts should make it shift like butter.

Got the 6R140 road tested and back to the customer. I had to program the TCM back to OEM software, the aftermarket tune he had was terrible. It Shifts very well. It does have a very mild “bump” or harshness on downshift from 6-5, and 4-3, which is when direct clutch (3 5 R) is applied. I’m...

Make sure you do not over torque the plugs. They crack easily. That is what looks like happened to your first set. JMO

I have the same scope. It gives excellent quality pictures

Got the 6r140 done. Had to do quite a bit of extra work to make this kit work. Customer got a Warren diesel kit that came with extra clutches for every module. Also opted for a quad disc billet torque converter, Revmax zero flex custom overdrive apply piston setup, new separator plate, Sonnax...

Yes, when I took the piston out that’s what it looked like. Didn’t find any other pieces in the drum, but found some in the valve body. That’s why I said I am very impressed it actually moved forward.

6R140 overhaul. Getting some goodies on this one. I’m honestly impressed it made it to me on its own. Lost a seal on forward clutch, and direct clutch got a bit toasty. This all started over the winter when the owner got stuck in the snow. Got everything cleaned, and ready to assemble...

Don’t waste your money on that. Go straight for a DCR conversion

Bobcat 743 hydraulic leak. Leaking from spool valves. What you see is after 3 hours of pressure washing. I could barely see the valve block. Not a well kept machine. Tight space working obviously. Good money but man my back is sore from being hunched over so so long. Did all 4 spool...

I would remove as much as the original coating as you can with a pressure washer and use Noxudol 300 and 700
