New Differential Spool Prevents Shift Hesitation In Power Shift


Transmissions{3152,3167}

All Models (See Chart in Article) Using 7G9563 Differential Spool

Description of Change: The 7G9563 Differential Spool is used in the selector and pressure control
valve group in power shift transmissions of the listed models. Depending on the model, one of two
different changes have been made to this spool to prevent shift hesitation when the direction is
changed.

... On the larger models, a new 6Y2279 Differential Spool, not serviced under this number, is used.
These models have clutches with a diameter of 432 mm (17") or more. This differential spool has
four, instead of two, throttling slots at location J-J in the illustration.

... On the smaller models with clutches up to and including a diameter of 345 mm (13.6"), the two
throttling slots in the spool have been made deeper and the depth of the slots is held to a closer
tolerance. This spool retains the same "7G9563" part number, but is no longer serviced under this
number.

Adaptable To: Each new differential spool is adaptable to the earlier models as listed. Use the
applicable new spool assembly, which includes the new spool, and its two springs, snap ring, and
retainer.

NOTE: Use the new spool assemblies to replace only the former 7G9563 Spool. Some early 432 and
533 mm (17 and 21") transmissions do not use the 7G9563 Spool, and therefore the 6Y2280 Spool
Assembly should not be installed in these transmissions either.
The early 7G9563 Spool can be reused in the listed smaller models only if the flat-to-flat dimension
over the two P2 metering slots is 23.62 mm (.930") or LESS. See illustration. If this dimension is
more than 23.62 mm (.930"), make the slots deeper, or use the new spool assembly. To make the slots
deeper, remove an equal amount of metal from the bottom of each slot. See View J-J for cutter or
grind wheel diameter.

NOTE: You must be aware that there are many other causes for shift hesitation. Be sure to check for
easier solutions such as system flow, pressure settings, and linkage adjustments before concluding
that a differential spool change is needed.
