i cut a peice of 4 9/16ths drill stem and cut a window in it to remove the clip. i just put it in a hydraluic press. and get some decent snap ring pliers.
 
Cut a piece of 4'' pipe long enough so you can use the intermidiate shaft to align the splines. Cap the top of the pipe and cut a window on the side like gunracer1 said. Its a 900lb spring so be very carefull and wear eye protection.
 
thanks for the replies, ive never built an automatic before, i just kinda figure to take it apart laid out in order and then reverse it with new parts
 
its not so bad, gather good reading material and maybe pull a junker out of the scrap yard to practice on. FSM is a great reference.

I have just recently broke down my 47rh as my first transmission rebuild. So far, it has been less complicated as I had originally thought. Once it is broke down, it is easy to tell each parts purpose and how is applied.
 
I have had zero issues from a goerend convertor, and I have been thrashing on it for years.
 
Diesel Performance Convertors, they're a site sponsor on here. I've got one of Phil's reman convertors in my 47RH with no issues.
 
Yes, I did. It was $350 shipped but you have to send your core back. Not a big deal because Phil includes a shipping label.

Just don't be like me and send the core back 3 months later... :doh: Sorry Phil!
