Thread: I TESTIFY--Shift Kit--ZZP to TEP

Rule of thumb and it's in most filter kits on a piece of paper, Do not remove the filter seal unless the new filter is loose in it. Bill's rule, if you do need to change the filter seal, use a blind pilot bearing tool. Quick, e asy and done.

The servo doesn't need to get done unless you are having reverse issues. Most never do, I wouldn't typically suggest touching it.

Would you like some pictures?

K...HVAC... off to my pb account you go to find them. They are in the trans album

Tank you! Gonna be doing mine soon, like some pics to see what the dealio is!

What's wrong..you gonna make me get them? Geeeeeeez man. Learn my PB info.

Hahaga didn't see a link anywhere!!! No need to get em, i shall search and destroy

Round thing at the lower left is the servo. Follow the metal tubes to the right and that's the accumulator. The missing thing between the accumulator and the lower part of the casing is the trans filter. The black circle right below the accumulator is the filter seal.

Sweet, I had a 01 gt and never touched the trans, so I shift kit will be one of the needed mods before a pulley drop. Makes me nervous taking it apart, even tho everything looks hella simple

Its very simple. If I can do it u can

I put in a Thrasher shift kit when I first got the car. I still like it.

Haha thank, I'm sure it'll be fine. I'm in a mechanical trade, if ican rebuild a semi-hermetic ac compressor I'm sure I can handle this lol

It's a piston operated compressor, same concept of a motor, crank shaft, pistons, rings, valves even tho they are of a different kind lol, and heads

Bill thanks for the pic. I had the laptop up in the air to simulate what it's gonna look like when I'm on my back in the garage....LOL! So....it sounds like that filter seal is a real problem and should be avoided unless changing it is absolutely necessary?

I plan on installing the shift kit with the trans on the car, so if it's no accessible from the bottom, it ain't getting changed. Here's the kit I got from Triple Edge:

4T65E-Shift-Kit-Combo-Kit

It's basically the TransGo shift kit with the accumulator gasket, etc. Do I replace or re-use the pan gasket? Is there an upgraded gasket number if I need one?

BTW, thanks for the PB link, but pics are meaningless without your expert narrative. Seriously, as good as the pic above is, it wouldn't mean anything without know what part was what.
