a. Transmission Identification Number
A production identification number is stamped on a metal tag, located in the lower left side of the trans-
mission case.
The production code number is located along the bottom of the tag. Since the production identification num-
ber furnishes the key to construction and interchangeability of parts in each transmission, the number
should be used when selecting replacement parts as listed in the master parts list. The number should
always be furnished on product reports, AFA forms, and all correspondence with the factory concerning a
particular transmission.

increased friction which prevents accurate measurement of tightness.
