Rendetoyeti 1 Posted October 2, 2023 Hey guys. I have an old beat-up xe with a BW40 that drives fine in reverse but barely moves in drive. I have removed the box and want to know how to adjust the bands. All I'm looking for is enough to be able to drive it onto a trailer. Any help would be much appreciated.

SPArKy_Dave 8,875 Posted October 3, 2023 There's only two band adjustments on them. Front band, accessed by removing the pan, and rear band at the back R/H side, up top, also the kickdown cable, which affects fluid pressure. The Rear (First/Reverse) Band is easy - Loosen locknut, tighten bolt to 14Nm, back off bolt 3/4 of a turn, then re-tighten locknut. Front (Second/Third) Band is a bit harder - Remove oil pan, place a 1/4 inch spacer between band servo piston and the end of the adjusting bolt. Loosen lock nut, tighten adjuster screw to 1.1Nm, then re-tighten locknut Parts list - https://www.alltranz.com.au/shop/drivetrain/automatic-transmission/BW35/ Also see this thread - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
