I did mine at about 80k miles. I dont see why not; as its replacing springs, solenoids, etc. with bigger ones. Id say if anything it would prolong the life of the tranny.

While your at it, get a tranny cooler. You can get a good one for under $100.

oh that sucks. He was charging an arm and a leg for those cores I thought, just so people would HAVE to send them in.
