im planning on doing that tonight, i meant to weeks ago but it kept gettin put back for flooding/work/school so tonight all systems dead set on flush/filter and shift kit just for the added lifespan (less clutch slipping between each gear) im hopin that will help it a lot because even in the manual for the package it says it can dramatically increase the remaining life of a trans showin signs of goin out .. just the earliest signs like mine is doing though, so im just lookin to get another few months out of it and go ahead and rebuild it
i dont wanna worry about it goin out on me later on down the road when i dont have the money on hand to do it :-p

 

Everything you mentioned is a good idea except the shift kit. Think of it this way. If your installing the kit for 2 reasons, #1 you want firmer shifts and #2 you want to lengthen the life of the tranny. Opt to wait on the firmer shifts and install the shift kit after the rebuild or tranny swap. No sense in wasting the kit on a tranny that might die on you tomorrow. Then you can lengthen the life of the NEW tranny, not your old dying one.

 

yeah but i see it like this, the shift plate doesnt get messed up, if i put the shift kit in thats less i have to do later on and itll prolong the life long enough that ill be SURE to have enough to get a good rebuild on my current one
