Applications
Tech Note 1: Retainer Specs
Approximate dimensions for QU10704 are:
Bellhousing index pilot diameter 5.6".
Pilot for the transmission case 4.1".
Bolt Circle 4.85"
Length 1.875"
Tech Note 2: Retainer Only
QU10704 is just the retainer, it does NOT include the concentric clutch slave cylinder.
Tech Note 3: Sealants
Early production NV4500 Transmissions used an anaerobic sealant (QU90003) to seal between the main case and bearing retainer. Later production transmissions used black RTV sealant (QU90006 or QU90005). Either type of sealant works fine, but I prefer RTV for this application. Regardless of which sealant you use, make sure excess sealant does not block the lube access hole at the top of pilot that fits into the transmission case. Also, the threaded holes in the main case for the four retainer bolts are open ended, so you must use new bolts with factory applied theadlocker or apply Threadlocker (S24200) to your existing bolts to prevent oil seepage past the bolt threads. See my TM1003 NV4500 Shop Manual or V1003DVD NV4500 Overhaul Video for more information.
