Transmission Rebuild Pics, do these pics make you want to DIY when it comes time?
Here are some pics for those of you that were following My X5 transmission rebuild last year so closely.
Since it was time for me to do the transmission in my Land Rover I took some pics to highlight what the insides of our tranmissions look like. And hopefully inspire some confidence in others. These transmissions are very similar in their construction just differing in the size (larger in the x5 and at least 1 extra gear). ***I do want to point out that both me and my friend are both corporate white collars and not mechanics.*** My Previous Thread post#1 and post#2 This is the complete assembly as it would be inside the transmission front front to back     Clutch Packs A to F with planetary gear sets.  soaking the friction material in ATF    packing the clutches with frictions and steals   applying lube to the bearing  lining up the cluthces  planetary gear set components, also soaking them in ATF       The components going back into the case  Bottom of transmissio where Valve body attaches to  plantary gears inside the case   packing the clutch brakes         dry friciton material, not yet soaked in ATF           valve body - of which the x5 is a lot more complex.   case full of components and bell housing attached. you can see the components inside.  this is where the tourque converter is attached  parking brake pawl  you can see the planetary gear set here and the clutch packs   valve body stuff     assembly lube of choice

So what gave you the balls to take this on with only your friend? Did you have any books or instructions for the operation? You have inspired me to take care of mine when the time comes. Great pics!
