A planetary carrier assembly for a transmission in which the support for the planet pinions is provided by a preassembled sheet metal part formed of a support member, a spacer and a plate member secured together by welding. Aligned holes are bored in the three parts after welding to accommodate shafts for the pinions, thrust bearing washers being located between the planet gears and the support and plate members. The pinions are secured by an upsetting operation on the plate member and the support member at adjacent the ends of the pinion shafts.
