Found a few setbacks after working most of the weekend on the valve body. I found two of the three accumulator pistons are plastic and almost all sources say to replace these with aluminum. I didn't remember this detail during disassembly or I would have ordered replacements with the other orders.
I was trying to replace the seals in the manual valve pressure switch and pulled one of the plastic orange colored lenses out with the seal, I also noticed there was debris under and on the other lenses so I decided to replace it, for 28 bucks it's peace of mind.
The challenge was finding sources that would deliver parts at least by this Friday, many were into the following week.
I almost gave up when a check ball rolled off the plate and into the case about 9:30 last night, I could not find it and thought I would have to disassemble the entire trans to find one fk'n ball. I was even considering since it was synthetic rather than steel, get another and let the trans chew it up but I would not sleep if I did that. I was not to the point of installing the valve body so I had not put grease on the ball, lesson learned.
The last issue is with the TransGo HD2 kit, the very first step on the valve body is to remove an original valve spring and replace it with the "tightly wound purple spring" in the kit, the spring is tightly wound, the coils are completely compressed so I will call TG today for help.
