ZF5 questions

[freebird01]

Ok...I am thinking about digging into my whining ZF5 and doing a rebuild on it. (S5-42)

Does anyone have a pdf of the ZF manual? The link i have been finding (including the tech article on OB) has been broken...

There you go Jason.


Whining can be worn gear on input shaft or counter/main shaft.

In addition to the ZF docs, i found this thread helpful: http://www.oilburners.net/forums/showthread.php?62490-ZF5-(S5-47)-Transmission-Rebuild

Mine us to whine to I thought it was the trans. When I pulled it the pilot bearing and release bearing were shot, so I did them and the flywheel clutch and no more whining. Mine us to whine a lot in the mountains and towing but not so much on the flats.

Mine was a fresh rebuild when I got it. Are they supposed to whine when downshifting? That's the only time I get any out of it.

i know what the TOB sounds like.....thats noisy too....but you can hear it in the gearbox also. my trans has 200k on it when i got it and was in a farm truck that was well used...its time..
