Right. I forgot you had the six pack with GM trans. I would have thought it be easier to find parts for that if is made by GM?

I posted this over on rangerovers.net, in case it’s of interest?

Sorry - just remembered that I had posted the GM 5L40-E teardown on here (I've just updated my original post).

OH THATS RIGHT

I totally forgot that you did tear down an 5L40E i dont know why i kept thinking that you did it with a ZF tranny man. Thanks Phil


well I just spend an hour or so reading through both threads and the online things.

So yes I have this same Tranny as the one you teared down. i have 3G UX A5S390R.

I was having slipping issues for less than a week and one day it would engage in any gear but if i let it site for a bit it would and the next day there was no noise or anything...any how the TC is being rebuilt so ill be tearing it open but after reading your post on the issues with reinserting the pistons etc....do you think as a first timer I shoudl get the ezee cone adaptors and use that to help me in rebuilding them.

Ive still been unable to find a rebuilt valve kit so looks like worst case i get a new valve kit that has the sonnex gear installed already.

Next question for you Phil would be should i repalce the clutches if they seem fine or just repack?

Automatic, Standard Transmission and Transfer Case Rebuild Kits, Cobra Transmission Parts 1-800-293-1848 is the location i plan to buy the kits from


hmm looking at that site they list the kits with the A5S360R not A5S390R

any advice?
