Perhaps true, however why not replace it while you have it apart? Seems to me if you don't want a half ass overhaul why not do it right the first time? I guess I'm not big into removing and reinstalling transmissions.

If that's what u want to do that's fine but 99.9% of the time replacing the rear band is a waste of money unless you where having problems with rev slipping.

It is not a shifting band it is applied while you are sitting still.

I spent 27 years in the business and have done more of these units than most people have ever seen.
And most of the time the rear bands look like new.

There is a big difference in a true rebuilder that knows what is good and what is bad by looking at the parts and someone that is just a parts changer.

Absolutely true. I was a trans tech at a Dodge dealer for over 20 years. I've literally rebuilt thousands of these things and can count on the fingers of one hand the times a rear band needed to be replaced.
