Bushwhacked! Keys to Avoiding Preventable Bushing Problems
Brian Wing
Symptoms:
- B Clutch burned
- Bushing wear
- Bushing failure
- Ratio codes
Cause:
OE bushing material composition allows premature wear.Correction:
Install improved Sonnax sun gear shaft bushings to restore critical clearances and resist untimely wear.Warning:
Use of an arbor press is required for correct installation. Do not use a hydraulic press or a bushing driver/hammer combination to install, as doing so will distort the bushing and cause fitment issues.

Find a DistributorThe OE sun gear shaft bushings located at front and rear of the sun gear shaft in ZF6HP26 and ZF6HP28 units have a tendency to wear out prematurely due to sub-optimal material composition. This wear can lead to bushing failure, pressure control codes, and burnt B-clutches. Sonnax sun gear shaft bushing 95030-06 features superior wear characteristics, eliminating premature deterioration for worry-free operation.
