Has anyone done a rebuild on the A4LD? I just got a master overhaul kit from NAPA, and I plan on taking my tranny out next friday. Are there anythings i should watch out for? or keep in mind during this process?

So i got the transmission out, it took a little under 4 hours to do. I took it over to the local "whale of a wash" (self car wash with pressure washers) and got it pretty clean. The pan came off, and the fluid was extremely black, so I figured this was the right thing to do. I took the tailshaft off, and its like that now. I am waiting on an ATSG manual, a shift kit, and a boost valve. I was disappointed to see that inside the master overhaul kit there were no instructions, just about 160 different gaskets, and metal plates.. So i cant really do much until i get this manual. I will try to post pics during this process.

did you buy the ATSG book yet? i've got one that's brand new. i was going to try to rebuild mine in september, but i decided to let someone who knows what they're doing do it for me.
ok so now i am waiting on another book because the one i ordered ended up being an "update manual" damn, So i got the shift kit done, that did not go as easy as i thought it would. Ill get some pics of that up later, but now I am waiting on the other book from edzdallas to finish up the project
I now have the transmission taken apart, swithed out clutch and friction plates, and some seals, and its back togeter.. ill post some pics up tomorrow, i have to find a few other parts, then it goes back in the car
