Have you ever rebuilt an auto transmission before? If the answer is no, then I would suggest that you purchase a complete rebuilt one with a torqure converter. Also remember to flush out the transmission cooler lines and the cooler before installing the transmission or else failure will result from debris entering that fresh transmission.

I have rebuilt a few AOD's a while back. I know that I needed a shop manual, a clutch pack compressor and a dial gauge to properly select a thrust shim for proper preload. Not to mention going through the valve body and installing any necessary updates that it may require.

Is that all? <-sarcastic remark

Good thing they come pre-asembled.
