1982-1986

We wish to thank General Motors Corp for the information and illustrations that have made this booklet
possible. The THM 700-R4 transmission is a fully automatic unit consisting of a 3 element torque converter
with the addition of a converter clutch. Five multiple disc clutch packs, one roller clutch, one sprag and one
band provide the friction elements required to obtain the desired function of the compound planetary gear set.
The combination of these elements provides four forward speeds with 4th gear being overdrive, and reverse.
Changing of the gear ratios is fully automatic in relation to vehicle speed and engine torque. Vehicle speed and
engine torque signals are constantly fed to the transmission, to provide the proper gear ratio for maximum
efficiency and performance at all throttle openings.
