If another as novice as myself has guts or lack of foresight and delves into the valvebody ,this should assist your orderly assembly

 

Thanks, I know just what not to mess with now.
Is that expoded as in blowed up or supposed to look like that?

My buddy rebuilt an automatic trans in high school auto shop class and was from that moment on considered a god.

 

Very cool!

Automatic transmissions are fun.

 

I remember my early experiences with rebuilding carburators. That sinking feeling when I unexpectantly heard a spring going "Boing!" and I've no clue where it went! To me, automatic transmissions seem 10 times more complicated than a carb!!! John

1. to show others who may anticipate doing this and

2. to pre empt any unexpected energy spikes by the dog or kids .

It`s a post 71 trans valvebody--wee bit different prior to earlier -pre 71- I believe
