I just installed the Transgo correction kit in my 99 explorer sport, 5r55e tranny. I took it for a test drive and everything seemed great. After driving it a couple days, I noticed an occational 3-2 coast clunk which wasn't there before I installed the kit. I called Transgo and they told me to adjust the bands and that should take care of the problem. So today I attempted this procedure. I backed off the lock nut a couple turns on the intermediate band. Went to torque it to 120 in. lbs. and the lock nut bottomed out before i reached the 120 in. lbs. Backed the lock nut off more, same thing happend. I backed the nut off till only two threads were showing and it still bottomed out. It never reached 120 in. lbs. Same thing with the overdrive band except for the square end on the adjuster screw snapped off in the process so now I can't adjust it. Are my bands broke? I didn't hear anything fall into the pan so I don't think the anchor fell out of position. Like I said, the truck shifts fine other than the 3-2 clunk. Wouldn't I notice more serious tranny issues if my bands were broke? I'm at a stand still and have no idea what to do next. Please help!
