Oh come on now dont throw him to the dogs that quick
After 25 yrs of building trannys i would recomeend if you want to try your hand at transmissions and be a master of all to start get you a real good camera unless you have a photographic memory which most of us don't but think we do and thats what gets us in trouble but untill you get yrs of experiance and yes i mean yrs the camera will be your best friend and help you remember where it all came from and where it all goes back but won't teach you the tricks of how to get it there ! That part you will eventually figure out after hrs of cursing everything under the sun !
Some transmissions you will have to have special tooling to do the job right and speaking of the aod it is 1 of them to reseal the apply pistons !
But when you get to the point of knowing what you are doing and you figure out the fluid schematics and know what caused the failure and how to fix it you will make yourself a very healthy living in such proffesion :roll:
