Automatic Transmission Bushing 3681709

When the governor bushing wears past spec, shift timing becomes unpredictable and pressure readings drift, and replacing this single component can bring governor circuit behavior back to the expected range. This bushing fits TH350, A518, and A727 TF-8 automatic transmission units built from 1970 forward, covering a long production span without modification.

The governor assembly regulates hydraulic pressure based on output shaft speed, and the bushing that supports it must hold tight tolerances to do that job correctly. A loose or damaged bushing allows fluid to bypass where it should not, which disrupts the pressure signal the transmission relies on to time each upshift and downshift. Swapping this part during a rebuild or a targeted repair addresses that specific failure mode without requiring a full seal or gasket kit.

This listing covers one bushing. It does not include any gaskets, seals, clutch packs, steels, Automatic Transmission Filters, or bands. If your job calls for those parts, they need to be sourced separately. REMCO has handled automatic transmission components since 1991, and every part is pulled and checked individually at the facility before it ships. The box includes a part record so you can confirm what arrived matches what was ordered.

Before placing the order, verify the transmission model code on the unit itself, either from the tag on the case or from the vehicle build documentation. The correct codes for this bushing are TH350, A518, and A727 TF-8. Do not assume compatibility from engine size or vehicle application alone, as several different units may have been installed across overlapping production years.

• A worn governor bushing causes erratic shift points and pressure loss; this single bushing addresses that failure point directly in TH350, A518, and A727 TF-8 units.
• This listing is for one bushing only. It does not include seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filters, steels, clutch discs, or any other components. Review your parts list before ordering.
• The governor bushing sits at a critical control point in the valve body circuit; replacing it when worn restores consistent governor pressure and stable shift scheduling.
• Contents: 1 governor bushing. Item weight: 1 lb. Packaged and verified against its part record at the REMCO facility before shipment.
• Before ordering, confirm your transmission model code is TH350, A518, or A727 TF-8. Cross-check the unit tag or build sheet to avoid a return.
