Re: A vs AA Transmission
And one more thing.....
Anyone know what the oil capacity is for the AA transmission? I've searched and searched and haven't found anything... I've read that the A is one pint.. I've put two quarts in the AA and it's still not quite full, and now I'm out of oil but it's nearly full as I can see it through the filler... It sure shifts better with te 600w and it's quieter too... Randy |

Re: A vs AA Transmission
I have solved the shifting problem. The pressure plate was out of adjustment and as a result the clutch linkage was way out of whack...
Shifts fine now... http://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=172037 |

Re: A vs AA Transmission
I thought I'd post a couple of pictures of the AA and A bell housings side by side....about 1 7/8" height difference...

Re: A vs AA Transmission
I learned a couple more things about the AA vs the A transmission...at least on my installation..
Mine has a 32 or 33 BB rear transmission bearing retainer...BB-5089-A..i found one on ebay... And the bolt spacing on the u-joint clamshell is 2 7/8" vs the 2 3/4" spacing on the A clamshell with evenly spaced holes...

Remember I have a 4-speed, which must be AA because the pedals still mount on the transmission case... I looked at a fellow's 30 ccpu the other day, he has a 4 speed...the rear bearing retainer is very different... But this is a picture of mine...

Re: A vs AA Transmission
I recently bought a copy of the Service Bulletins. While paging through I noticed this subtle difference between the 4-speed and 3-speed on page 509...
And sure enough my old AA clutch shaft was offset, but the replacement was an A shaft and so though most of my shifting problems with the 4-speed had been resolved with new bearings, clutch disc and pressure plate, this just created a new problem.... AA 4-speed shaft on the right... 4-speed is gone now and the 3-speed works great.

Re: A vs AA Transmission
He might be in the market for your AA tranny if you are thinking about selling.
