Most T-400 trannys do indeed use a sprag. It is for the intermediate gear or 2nd gear. When the sprag goes out you will have no 2nd gear. Some T-400's made in the mid 80's don't use one. They use a roller bearing clutch instead. You can get rid of the sprag assembly and use the roller type...
Here's another "opinion" of mine. Free speech is a wonderful thing. But like anything else, use the freedom wisely and don't abuse it and turn it into a bad thing. Don't hide behind the law and use "free speech" as a tool to just act like an A** everywhere you go. Every man is judged by the...
The worst thing you can do to a transmission is NOT use it. The rubber parts and the friction surfaces dry out and deteriorate. The T-400 is one of the very strongest transmissions avaliable, but parts do dry up and rot like anything else. All automatics would be the same.

Good point, didn't think of that. I did pull the hub back out and check the seat, it looked good in my case. The TM from the Resource section says to use this method. But installing it in the hub is probably a better method, as long as you are careful with that heavy brake/hub assembly.
Yes you could, but I didn't want to risk dragging the seal across the axle threads or messing it up some how. If you place it on the shaft first, it slides right into place with almost no effort.
