No but tearing stuff down n remembering how it goes back together, attention to detail n precision. there aint too much in changing some springs. drilling some holes. putting some filters in... n make sure u dont lose any of those marble things having them in the same spots. put it back together the exact same way u took it apart torked correctly. Plug everything back in... stay organized. n stab it back in correctly. if theres any pointers u can give me that wud be great... like wat to do after i start the car back up.... just go through p, r, and drive? switch it to manual but i cant go through gears if parked... or do i take it for a soft spin until it goes through the gears a few times.. then check my fluid again after... do all this before i run it hard? Igot sum vasline for the filters n marbles too...lol

My only advise is triple check your work.before you drill holes, triple check to make sure you have the right bit and right hole. After you drill all the holes, hold the separator plate up to the light and make sure there is light shining through each and every hole weather you drilled that one or not.

After its all put back together, refill it and let the car warm up in park at idle then check the trans fluid. After a few minutes, shift it through the gear selector with your foot on the brake and parking brake engaged.


When you test drive it, go easy through all 5 gears a couple times then gradually work your way into more aggressive shifts.

Oh...... And good luck! Lol.

You're looking for metal shavings from drilling the holes getting stick in the smaller holes as you wipe the separator plate clean.

You can tell the size of the bits by their length. The smaller they are, the shorter they are. You can get a micrometer to measure them if you need to
