So i got the rebuild kit and i started putting my 700 back together. For some reason i cannot get the clutch pack clearances right for s**t. It seems like someone may have rebuilt this trans before and left out some parts, because some things are missing. For the Low/reverse pack all the way at the bottom of the trans, there was no wave plate against the piston underneath the first steel. It seems they left it out to keep just enough clearance, because if the wave plate was in there, it would be very tight. I got an oem spec rebuild kit and im stacking the clutches exactly how they are suppose to be.

What problems would arise from leaving that bottom wave plate out? Because if i go and get one and add it in there the clearance would be very tight. They did the same for the reverse drum. Instead of putting waveplate, steel, clutch, there is no wave plate and the pack started from the bottom with steel, clutch, steel, ect. And also, if i was to add the waveplate there would be no clearance.

Any help would be great.
