[@mikestackhouse9001]

Yes, the 727 was stout and when set up correctly, it could take all the pounding you could give it and still get you to the next race!

[@warrenpuckett4203]

Also light weight. Easy to work on. BUT there are two versions of inside parts. Don't mix them. Well you can mix the plates and clutches. You just be one plate and disc short of having a high performance build. Those are good for 340-360s but not good for 383/Hemi/440s. That is why the 4 barrel 69 Town and Countries are missing he engines and transmissions

Also light weight. Easy to work on. BUT there are more than two 727 versions of inside parts and engine bolt patterns. Don't mix them. Well you can mix the plates, baskets and clutches. They will work behind a 383 2 barrel. (Also if the pack has the ASSEMBLED right feeler gap. There also is total gap for entire assembly (very important)) Also do NOT put it behind high horses and torque. You also will be just be one plate and disc short of having a high performance build. There are also different clutch baskets (drums) Those are good for 340-360s but not good for 383/Hemi/440s. That is why the 4 barrel version of 69 Town and Countries are missing the engines and transmissions. Also the disc brakes. 727 with bronze plates were either police or racing builds. A real factory race HEMI/440 will have those. I worked in a tranny shop in the 70s. IF you do rebuild a real police vehicle. Hint: Good source for the heavy duty build. The only thing for direction choice is Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive. LOW is not an option. That is how to can tell it is not a replica. Also anything past D is locked out on the steering column. The column may or may not read that way. Some are locked out on the trans linkage. Nothing stinks like a old Ford FMX. It also likes to spit the special stink, burnt tranny fluid, on you, like a upset camel.

I raced the same 727 for 22 years, first behind basically street Early hemis, then behind a 13.5 -1 Alky 392, and then behind a Blown & Injected stroker Hemi, and the only breakage was the front Pump Drive dogs, if I snapped the throttle in gear. Under load it took all the Power and sometimes burned Rubber right thru the lights. Those things are Tough !

[@madmanmechanic8847]

Nick here is and old school trick on 727s. When I graduated from Auto Tech School AAI in Glendale Arizona I went to work for Plymouth dealer and worked around Mechanics that had worked on the 440 six pack cars and Hemi cars new. And they worked on the old Monaco and Polara 440 Police interceptors . One of the techs told me back in the day they would pull the valve body down and pull the accumulator spring out for the piston on one two shift on the old interceptors . He told me it would make the one two shift firmer and quicker . I tried it an man did is shift quick and hard ! I rebuilt one of these a long time ago at school a student brought in a 69 charger and I rebuilt it at school I was surprised it actually worked . One of my instructors told me to use type F on the transmission he said that real expensive green ATF you buy for racing is just type F with a dye in it. Boy that was a long time ago.

in this world there are 2 types of Torque Flite trans there is a 3speed and a 4speed. the 3 speed are A904 and A727 and the 4 speed are A500 and A518. the A500 use the fluid pan of the A904 and the A518 use the fluid pan of the A727

[@fpsmith466]

Howard Simpson (1892 - 1963) was the inventor of the Simpson planetary gearset which formed the basis of the 3 speed automatic transmission. Ford in the early 1950's was the first company to licence the Simpson patents, however did not produce the Simpson design until the introduction of its C4 and C6 transmission in the mid 1960's. GM licensed the Simpson patents in the mid 1960's with the introduction of the TM-400 and TM-350. However, Chrysler recognized Simpson's design, licensed and introduced the Torqueflite 727 transmission in 1956. Both Ford and GM tried to go their own way but relented once they realized the value of Simpson's design. An interesting era of automotive history.

[@pauljohanson7643]

My old Motor Transmission manual says to use "Door Ease" stainless stick lubricant on those clutch piston seals for installation. I found a stick of "Door Ease" at a local parts store 35 years ago. It is kind of like a wax stick. I still have that same stick and use it on every 727 and 904 I rebuild. Just smear it on the lip of the seal and on the beveled area on the drum where the seal contacts the drum. I have real good luck sliding the piston in then. It works better then anything else I have tried.

[@nickpanaritis4122]

Door Ease. OK. I will try it. Thanks Paul.

Hey Nick, Your building a classic transmission listening to classical music, very cool. I have rebuilt my 727 in my International Harvester Scout II 4X4 adding a few tricks like installing a bolt in sprag and building the clutch packs to 426 Hemi specs, extra springs and clutches. Over my many years, I have also I have built 727's, 904's, C-3, C-4 and C-6 trannies, they are simple and fun. I am thinking about rebuilding the trans in my 2013 Toyota Sienna, The only pain in the butt part is it's front wheel drive and I don't have a lift, but that's down the road a piece. Plenty of time to think up something to get it high enough to get it out.

This is why you are good. You knew something was not right. Had that gut feeling! Look into it and over and into it and that’s right you fixed it. You fix the problem.

Nice to watch a professional work. I have used a paraffin candle or ski cream to install the seals. Paraffin glides well and does not affect the composition of the oil too much.

Just a trick I learned from a ford tech school. (applies to any automatic). Try to install the steel and friction plates with the rounded edges on the inner and outer teeth up.
