TM 9-2520-272-40 0001 SHIPPING NOTE On early model transmission assemblies, the installation tag states to remove and discard six nuts and six support brackets that secure the torque converter to the transmission assemblies for shipment. This tag is in error. The six support brackets and six nuts must be retained. However, only three brackets and three nuts need be installed for shipping. Some later models of the transmission assemblies utilize three shipping brackets, three nuts, three bolts, and 15 washers for retaining the torque converter for shipping. Latest model transmission assemblies utilize three shipping brackets and three nuts for retaining the torque converter for shipping. These brackets and nuts are identical to those used on early six-bracket conf gurations. Do not reuse nuts for transmission assembly installation. Use used nuts only for reinstallation of shipping brackets. All bolts, washers, nuts, and brackets will be stored with reusable shipping and storage container for use when installing transmission assemblies in reusable shipping and storage containers. Dependent upon where transmission assembly in reusable shipping and storage container originated from, shipping plugs and caps may or may not be present. Field Maintenance personnel must ship unserviceable transmission assemblies and reusable shipping and storage containers to Sustainment Maintenance. Sustainment Maintenance personnel must ship unserviceable transmission assemblies and reusable shipping and storage containers to Depot Maintenance.
