A/T - C6 No. 9 Thrust Washer Failure

TSB 87-61(Nov)

DATE: November 01, 1987

SUBJECT: FORD C-6

PROBLEM: No. 9 thrust washer failure

SOLUTION:
In 1987 this thrust washer was revised to a thrust bearing that will retro-fit.

The one-way clutch inner race and reverse ring gear hub were also changed, to allow for the thrust bearing, and all three parts must be used as an assembly when converting to the earlier transmissions. The part number is E7TZ-7D164-B, which includes:

1. No. 9 thrust bearing
2. One-way clutch inner race
3. Reverse ring gear hub
