I'm with you captain, it's definitely not worth rushing, I'll still be going at the same pace, just putting in more hours if I can, that way if it makes it cheering, if not at least I tried, and there's no way I'll be taking it there if it's not run in 100% or if there's still issues...

Barnz don't get me wrong, I am very much the same, I stoned each surface of the steels, and the two frictions had like 1% wear, plus this pack only controls Reverse, and low range if it were 4wd... I can live with that

I tackled the valve body again last night, and just as I thought with a clear head it was just as easy as they claimed..

There's two halves, with a sandwich plate Inbetween, then the TCM.. I only got one half done last night, completely stripped it, gave it a Kero bath, blew it down for about 20mins making sure I got in every nook and cranny, changed over the factory plungers/Pistons for the Sonax ones with o-rings, then put it back together, and I'm feeling better about using new solenoids (not coz Bellend suggested it, but because I wanted to )

Genuine solenoids $600

Genuine sandwich plate $117

Still waiting on the motor and dad spent 3hrs tipping the valves, still with 8 to go this afternoon.. About 0.03" had to come off each, not many people understand how crucial the correct Crush/lash is even with hydraulic lifters

Thanks, Joe

these fancy new clutched automatic gearboxes are a fair piece of engineering brilliance... I thought my manual gearbox was complex when I deconstructed it haha
