Congratulations Geoff, on a great job of Tranny restoration! The machine is truly "as new" again now. The photo you took of the "Swirl-Away" draining truly shows the water doing just that and almost looks as if it could have been used for actual advertising "back in the day"! Thanks for sharing! | ||

Geoff, buddy - the Maytag looks AMAZING. Those Kennedy era Maytags are certaily my favorite. I can almost hear it washing away right now.... I am glad that you brought up that the baffle gyratators produce more suds - they certainly do. That pumping action was brought up in the ad I posted a few months back - one of the 4 bosted 'features'. :) And you make the transmission rebuild look easy! Make sure you've got some free time this winter as I have plenty of rebuilds needed in the basement. I do apologize for not getting back to your emails - the internet has been down at home. Look for one shortly. Thanks again for posting, always a pleasure to see you pop up here. Ben | ||

Geoff, I so admire that you are a highly skilled mechanic .
And you caught the water shooting through the drain holes during the suds-return. I LOVE it!!!! ;'D Your photos are indeed worthy of Cecil B. !!!!!!!! I agree with Steve about the perfection of the Swirl-Away drain shot. Suds-returns forever! Look how clean it got your jeans !!!! For the Doubting Thomases, what better proof is there than yours? What a fabulous washer repair chronicle for my morning breakfast reading. Thanks for the pleasures! Shock and awe crumbs are all over me. | ||

I have a couple transmission seals if anybody needs one
All - A few months ago I purchased three Kenmore/Whirlpool transmission gaskets on ebay. The seller went to ship them to me and could only find 2, so, thinking they were doing me a favor, they sent me two Maytag gaskets along with. They look just like those in the pictures in the above link but made by Gemline. I am not a fan of Gemline or aftermarket parts, but these look very nice. I am highly unlikely to use them as my spare time goes to Kenmores. I hate for useful parts to sit around, so if anyone needs one, feel free to let me know via e-mail and I'll try to help you out. Have a great day everyone! Gordon | ||
