just dropped the pan on my 700r because it was not shifting very well.. it seemed to not go out of 2nd, but at 25mph it would shift, but hard... so i've been reading that maybe the governor gear could be stripped.. but dont know what the hell that is?? and where is it??
also how do u adjust the throttle valve cable (passing gear cable.) it says that "The cable must be hooked up and adjusted correctly at all times, because this controls the pressure. When you step on the gas pedal the throttle valve cable turns the transmission pressure up. This is how to make the adjustment on the cable. With the throttle wide open, the cable must be fully pulled out at the exact same time. The adjustment is made at the bracket. You must push a button in or pull a button out to move the cable housing forward or rearward. Moving the cable housing to the rear raises the pressure. Be careful, if you adjust the pressure too low you could burn the clutches."

so could anybody please show me a picture, or explain the breakdown of the tranny
-thanks

Somewhere on the rear of the tranny, I think on the drivers side, is a formed sheetmetal dome cap with a wire bail holding it in place. This is the governor cover. Drain the tranny, remove the bail and cover then the governor will just pull out. The gears are nylon and do tend to wear out. If it is shot, you may need to swap the corresponding gear on the tranny output shaft as well which entails removal of the transfer case. I've never had a 700 apart myself so I'm not sure.
