I am in the final assembly stages of my 47RE transmission.
I took the necessary measurement to determine the proper thickness of the "intermediate shaft selective spacer" (see attached photocopy from ASTG manual).
The spacer I need should be 0.194 inches thick.
The spacer that I have is 0.176 inches thick
I ordered the proper thickness spacer from Vista Transmission Parts ($15), but I am not certain that it will arrive here before this Saturday (the day that I would like to install this transmission into the truck).
My question is: Is there an alternative way to compensate for the additional thrust clearance if I end up having to use this thinner spacer? Hope my question is clear.
Hate to rush things, but I am pressed for time and I wanted to get this transmission installed before the weather gets too cold.
