700r4 downshift issue
Finally got the trans in the car and took for a test drive.
When I'm slowing down and the trans down shifts, it slams down into the next gear. Harder than if i manually down shifted it. Never had one of my transmissions do this after a rebuild.
Anyone maybe have an idea what might be causing this?

Re: 700r4 downshift issue
Well, "best I could tell" wasn't even close on my tv cable setup. While it looked spot on it wasn't even close. A word of advice to everyone, get yourself a pressure gauge to set your tv cable properly, it's the only way to do it right.
Transmission downshifts much better now, however, when I put it in Reverse, it slams into gear. Seeing as I didn't modify the Aux VB, I don't like this. I will need to investigate and fix this.
