9 Series TorqueCommands : 904 / 998 / 999

["Brien Tourville" <hh7x@xxxx>]

Chrysler has / had Two Series in their Transmissions :

the 9 series 
the 7 series

Within each series - they had three builds :

In the 9 series - this would be :

904 / 998 / 999 ,

904 is for the Economy 6 engines 
and contains 3 clutches / 3 steel plates -
and narrow band - smaller drum etc.

998 is for Mid power engines - Torque motors -
like the 304 / I - 6 4x4 AMC products .
It contains a wider band - larger drum - 4 clutches /
4 steels etc . Has webbing cast onto the top
of the Trans. Case - can't miss it.

999 has been used behind the MoPar 
Duster 360 and Wrangler JEEPs up
thru the year 2000 .
It contains 5 clutches / 5 steel plates / widest band
big drum , 4 pinion planatary etc. and also
has webbing cast into the top of the case .

If you have a pencil size hole in the center
of the Input Shaft - you have a Lock Up
Convertor Trans. starting roughly around
1979 for Chrysler Products and 1981 for
AMC .

My 1981 Eagle Series 50 has a Six
and a 998 Lock Up Convertor Trans.



The 904 is a SIX cyl. Trans. non-4wd Vehicles

The 998 Came behind the 304 and the EAGLE 6.

You can tell a 998 Trans. as there is EXTRA BRACING
on the back ( or TOP depending if the car is on a lift or not )
of the Trans. Case . The Bracing is cast into the case -
and is clearly visable . 904 Trannies do not have the
Extra bracing .

You have an Original 304 V8 Gremlin "?" - 
You have an Original A-998 TorqueCommand.

I am failry versed in what the 904 can handle but I am getting 
conflicting reorts of what actually came behind my v8 gremmie stock.

Thats what I need to know, is it a 904 or 998.

Is there any tell tale markings on the tranny itself? 

I have never herd of a 998 in a gremlin. 904 and 3 spd is all I have 
ever
seen.
