Allison 200, 300 1967 Parts Catalog – The Only OEM Source for Torqmatic Converter Parts

If you are tracking down a seal, bearing, or clutch pack for an Allison Torqmatic 200 or 300 series converter, there is one thing that will waste your whole afternoon – ordering the wrong part because you guessed the assembly number. That is where the factory Allison 200, 300 1967 Parts Catalog earns its keep. 71 pages of pure OEM part numbers, exploded views, and assembly number cross-references. No aftermarket reinterpretations, no photocopied tables that lost the last two digits. This is the same booklet that came from Allison Division back in ’67.

Every page came off a printing press that answered to General Motors. The caution on page 2 tells you not to order parts directly from the numerical index – that is the kind of warning that saves a backorder headache if you take it seriously. The manual also explains exactly where to find your converter assembly number on the name plate, which is something I have seen guys miss because they were looking at the casting number instead. Spend five minutes with this catalog and you will know whether you have a TC 200 or a TC 300 before you pick up the phone.

Picture Index and Assembly Numbers

First thing you hit after the cover is a pictorial index for Series TC 200 Basic. That index points you to the Basic Converter on page 1-1.1 and the Output Shafts on page 2-1.1. The same structure repeats for the Series TC 300 starting on page 3-1.1. The drawings are not fancy, but they let you match your physical stack to a diagram. Once you match it, you pull the assembly number (A/N) from the name plate and cross it against the numerical listing. Aftermarket catalogs skip this step and that is exactly how you end up with a torque converter that fits the bolt pattern but has the wrong stator.

Basic Converter and Output Shafts: Where the Part Numbers Live

The exploded views for the Basic Converter cover the pump, turbine, stator, and one-way clutch assembly. The Output Shafts section gives you the rear cover, shaft, and bearing arrangement. Each callout on the drawing corresponds to a part number in the table. There is no generic “use this seal” language – every number is an Allison factory number. That means if you walk into a dealer with that number, they will hand you the correct part. No cross-reference lookup, no “maybe this one works.” If you are rebuilding a Torqmatic converter, you need this catalog on the bench next to the disassembly tray.

One thing that stands out in the OCR excerpt is the note about ordering parts through your distributor. Allison wanted you to go through the dealer you bought the equipment from, not direct to the factory. That rule still applies on most commercial equipment, but having this catalog gives you the exact part names and quantities so you do not sound like an amateur on the phone.

Why the 1967 Edition Still Matters

Because the components in these converters do not change just because the calendar flipped. If your machine has an Allison TC 200 or TC 300 that was built in the ’60s or ’70s, the internal geometry is locked to these part numbers. Later revisions might supersede some seals or bearings, but you need the 1967 baseline to know what you are dealing with. A generic online parts database might list a “superseded” number without telling you the original dimensions – then you install it and the clutch clearances are wrong. Stick with the original publication year for the converter you have.

71 Pages of Factory Specs

That number – 71 pages – is important because it tells you this catalog is complete for both series. It covers the TC 200 Basic Converter and Output Shafts, plus the TC 300 Basic Converter. Each section has its own page number range, so you can flip straight to the right assembly without thumbing through unrelated material. The service kit reference on page 11 is another time-saver – when a factory service kit exists, you do not have to piece together individual parts. Buy the kit, replace everything at once, be done.

I have been doing this for 28 years. When a tech walks in with a copied-from-the-internet parts list, I make him find the original page number before I hand over the $300 bearing. That is how much I trust factory documentation over aftermarket aggregators. This catalog is the real thing – original 1967 print from Allison Division of General Motors, Indianapolis.

Does this parts catalog include torque specifications?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. Torque values for converter assembly are found in the matching service manual.

Can I use this catalog for both the TC 200 and TC 300 series?

Yes. The catalog covers both series in one volume. The TC 200 basic converter starts at page 1-1.1, the TC 300 starts at page 3-1.1. The output shafts are common to both series and appear on page 2-1.1. If you have a converter name plate that reads “TC 200” or “TC 300,” the assembly number will be listed in the numerical index. Verify the assembly number against the exploded view to confirm the correct part.

What if my converter assembly number is not listed?

Check the name plate again. The catalog lists all assembly numbers that were current in 1967. If yours is missing, you may have a later revision or an aftermarket unit. Allison’s Service Parts Department can assist – the catalog provides contact instructions on page 2. Do not substitute parts based on visual similarity alone.

Is this a reprint or a scanned copy?

This is an original factory publication, not a reprint. The pages are from the 1967 print run.

You can stop hunting for part numbers across four websites and start using the factory source. Access the Factory Manual from AutoRepairManuals and get your converter back in service this week.
