The TH400 was phased out for the 1980 models, when the A-727 replaced the TH-400 as the only automatic transmission option for both the SJ Wagoneer/Cherokee wagons and the J-10/J-20 trucks. Internally similar to the Chrysler A-727, the case was one-piece, cast with an AMC pattern bellhousing (not interchangeable with a Chrysler pattern A-727).
This unit was an early semi-automatic transmission, based on the design of a conventional manual transmission, which used a servo-controlled vacuum-operated clutch system, with three different gear shifting modes, at the touch of a button; manual shifting and manual clutch operation (fully manual), manual shifting with automated clutch ...
Basically there are two types of motor vehicle transmissions: Manual – the driver has to perform each gear change using a manually operated clutch; Automatic – once placed in drive (or any other 'automatic' selector position), it automatically selects the gear ratio dependent on engine speed and load
In addition, the transmission supports start-stop systems by including a spring-loaded hydraulic accumulator to engage the first-gear clutches upon restarting the engine. [6] The 8th gear ratio of the 9TXX corresponds to the 6th gear ratio of the 6T40, allowing lower engine speeds in 9th gear. [ 5 ]

The automatic transmissions are for engines with longitudinal layout for rear-wheel-drive layout passenger cars. The control of the fully automatic system is fully hydraulic and it uses electrical wire only for the kickdown solenoid valve and the neutral safety switch. Physically, it can be recognized for its pan which uses 16 bolts.
All 8L transmissions are based on the same globally patented gearset concept as the ZF 8HP from 2008. While fully retaining the same gearset logic, they differ from this only in the patented [1] arrangement of the components with gearsets 1 and 3 swapped. [2] The 8L 90 is the first 8-speed automatic transmission built by General Motors.
These are automatic transmissions which are installed in trucks, buses, and other heavy motor vehicles: . D200S, D200D, D501, D502, D506 – 2-stage differential torque converter with either a single, or low and high speed gear range(s) and optional hydraulic retarder
