2 weeks ago . heading to a car show.

Heard noise when putting gas on.

Stop at friends house. Listened.

Then drove 400 home and parked it.

Trans out. Converter looks good.

Pulling on input shaft. Lot of play. And makes sound I heard.

Looking in book. Snap ring. For there is a bakelite washer.

So. That's what I'm thinking let go.

Will know when I get high range clutch out.

Reactor shaft feels good.

Spacer for shift mod.

Under .187

Pretty sure found the problem. Loose band.

Playing around with the lever I get the noise i heard.

Taper is to let oil out . or whatever the whole in valve is for.

You would think Packard would have thought of a better way to align the governors..

With the trans out. In front of me. I could not align this.

The planetary and parking gear.

The trans will not upshift. If not aligned.

Originally there is a roll pin between two splines that ensures the governors can only go on one way. Yours got whacked?
