Is it possible to install this servo incorrectly? I had a little trouble getting to get it back in place and when I did, it didn't look like it was in straight. It was flush with the bottom of the seperator plate when I took it out, but now I can see it tilted slightly.

Thanks for any help or suggestions. I have a different post that I think is tied to this.

oh, well....

After getting back into the transmission tonight I found that my problem had nothing to do with the servo, but the shift bar not being positioned in the plunger... I am sure that is not the correct term, but I am too tired to look them up.

Anyway, I finished up my valve body replacement and have not solved any of my tranny problems. I decided to go ahead and replace a wheel bearing since I was already filthy and had all my tools out. I replace the hub and ran the new wire up to the wire harness and all seemed good. I took it for a five mile trip to try it out, all was good. That is until about a quarter of a mile from my house and it sounded like a break pad came loose. I limped it into the driveway and pulled out the jack to find that my new wheel hub had failed.

This has not been a good series of repairs for this explorer. I am very frustrated right now!

Thanks for letting me blow off some steam,


Mike
