BINGO. This was the my first time getting into a slushbox, aside from an easy filter change. I've pulled apart a few mansmissions and gear boxes (done many clutches, a few converters), but autos' are black magic to me.
My hope was to try to inspire others with this thread, as I think the intent for
Roddrz was, too. Were it not for him, I probably would not have undertaken this effort; maybe after NGD's recent video, but not before that. Anyways - my point to your comment is I agree, but after doing it, it wasn't that bad. I learned a lot, and while I feel more confident, I don't want to do it more, lol. It's so messy and a PITA to do on my back and all the clean-up and smell - I'm ready to move on.
Anyways - it was brain surgery to me at first (and not that I am one now), but it is NOT as bad as it looks. I really don't think I have a lot of mechanical aptitude, and think others could easily do this with enough direct, tools, and time. I hope that's how it came across, because I DO think this is doable for most people.
JMHO.
Fingers crossed on some helpful input from NGD
