Thanks been a long time for me too (if you can even say that) I was a freshman in high school and got a part time job at my best friends dads trans shop all he had me doing was flushes and filter changes though I couldn't be trusted with any "real work" then and I can't say I blame him looking back but boy was I upset then about it

Continuing the refresh today I picked up some ATP trans lube and a gallon of Dexron VI from work so I could start soaking the new clutch and reverse band while I prepped other things.

Ahhhh the good stuff

A look at the worn out separator plate and the reason we are doing away with the steel check balls this wear would have caused major shifting issues in the future

A look at the fix for the above problem these will form to the separator plate hole actually resulting in a better seal

A look at the stock reverse boost valve next to the SONNAX unit I got the one on the right is the stocker and can cause runaway line pressure that causes case failure (oh that sounds lovely they all said)
