Hi everyone. I have a 200 4R transmission that was supposedly rebuilt. The output shaft has play in it. Is this normal? I have an old TH350 tranny with no play at all in the output shaft. I'm concerned the guy who built the 200-4R messed it up. Any thought on this loose output shaft?
Thanks

Are you checking output shaft play with the yoke installed? There is a bushing in the tailpiece which the yoke rides in. This arrangement tightens up the tailshaft movement.
