Yep….a Patented trans brake for the NAG1
*This will NEVER in its current form be sold as a “kit”
The work involved in transforming a NAG1 into a NAG1 with a trans. brake is tremendous.
I basically added an additional valve body into the case. This involves machine work on the case.
I needed to further modify internal clutch packs and drums.
Then tying my valve body into the original valve body. Whew.
The only external clue is a short solenoid on the rear passenger side of the case, installed on the flat webbed portion, midway up the case.
I’m working on a remote mounted trans cooler with a fan.
Screwing around with mine, my temps quickly reached 245F….not good.
Also looking into a Moroso trans overflow tank. I needed to use some overflow passages in the tranny case.
This is NOT something to use for more than a moment when staged.
The torque converter is literally trying to tear apart the fluid with a trans brake.
With my 3,000 stall converter, I find the hardest launch is obtained by the following procedure:
*Pre-stage & stage.
*Brake torque to about 2,000 rpm and hit the button. This builds line pressure to lock the tranny.
*Hold the button and raise the rpm to about 300 below your stall speed. ( I wish I could find a stutter box for our vehicles as that would make the launch simple.)
*On the appropriate light, simultaneously, release the button and floor it. The torque converter will then flash about 100 rpm above the actual stall speed.
My jeep now launches HARD!
Again, this will only be available as an upgrade on one of my existing or new High Torque Capacity NAG1’s.
