4R75W Transmission Valve Body Upgrade (Troyer)

[Jackpine]

88, I'm going to add your "technique" to the "how to" thread. It may keep at least a teaspoon full of fluid off your arm!

I know with past tranny work. That trying to do them on the floor isn't always the best.
I've learned that renting a two post hoist and a stall at a local shop keeps me a little cleaner along with my tools. My garage floor doesn't get as messy either. They are a PIA.
Why the mfgrs never put in a drain plug is beyond my comprehension. That drain plug would make it so much easier.

what are the key benefits of these kits..? can these kits be used in addition to the gryphon programmer? or are they intended to be used in place of?

I wonder what a tranny shop would charge for labour to install this .. any guesses? i would never attempt this myself

Bill and I have discussed this here:http://forum.gopowerhungry.com/calib...y-upgrade.html

What a tranny shop would charge to do this would all depend on:

If they are hourly>>1-2hours.
If they have a jobber rate.
How much they charge for the fluid. You should use new stuff.
