You can replace just the solenoid; I had to do it on my mini-starter a couple years ago because the plastic crumbled. Ask Boner for the info, he's got it around someplace.woody90gtz wrote:One of the studs on my 95Z starter broke when I took off the sol engage wire, so I'm in the market for a new one. Is yours OEM or a parts store replacement? I've heard lots of issues with the replacement ones.
List of most of the same as above since it includes this trans, but it also has info in there for what I had done to my old 95 trans before getting the 96...Whats in my current trans is,
Valves: Purchased from http://www.transmissionpartsusa.com
84754-22k Torque converter clutch apply valve kit (standard size) 91-96
84754-23K Anti-stick 1-2 shift valve
84754-25K hi-ratio Reverse & modulated line boost kit
84754-36k 2-3 Shift Valve 94-97
84754-37k 3-2 Downshift valve 91-up
84754-38k 3-4 Shift valve 91-up
84754-39k 4-3 Downshift valve 91-up
Hard Parts: Purchased from http://www.bulkpart.com
A84570B 4th Clutch hub & Shaft (No bearing at clutch hub end/Sleeve race at splined end) 96-99
A84624 Shell, Reverse Reaction, Black Hardened
A14700B Chain, 4T45E / 4T60E 7/8 inch wide
Clutches: Purchased from http://www.level10.com (I recommend http://www.wittrans.com for others, MUCH cheaper) There are also some others out there so Search first.
84119EAS1 (wittrans number) Friction Module Stage 1 95-up (Raybestos Part #RCPS-32)
Steels: Can be purchased from http://www.wittrans.com (I got mine from level10 after complaining)
84139EA Steel Module, L94-UP
Misc parts from TransmissionPartsUSA.com
84532-01k Differential Lube Tube Retainer
84881 Solid pump slide pivot Pin (pack of 5)
4662 Transmission Pump vane (9 needed)
And of course I got all the gaskets o-rings and bushings and thrust washers in my original Level10 kit which you can get from A standard rebuild kit or from WITTRANS.com... as well as replacement Bands. The valves and Low Roller sprag differ for 95, the 95 and older has more of a chance to wear out and fail, so its highly recommended to replace it during rebuild... My 96 one was fine and did not have to be replaced. BulkPart number for that is, A44654 91-95.
Since all that was done I'm in there one more time now. I found some dark spots on the 4th gear clutches, which I think may be from either debris, or not so level mating plates, so I'm using the 4th clutches that I had from the first stage 1 kit I killed to replace them, and I'm also using a set of broken in steels that came from the first Stock rebuild kit I used in Pink car, before going stage 1. I also found some small spots on the 2nd gear clutch which I also think is due to debris or delayed shift but since there are no hot spots on the plates like the 4th ones (why I think the plates are not flat) I'm leaning more toward debris than a slip. so I'm using the 2nd clutches that were spares as well as a set of broken in steels once again to ensure that they work well together. Other than that, the input and 3rd clutch look perfect, and I was more afraid of the input being the one that would be cooked, and also the third is the one that Raybestos sells a special Z-pack for the 65e which happens to fit the 60e so I thought maybe I could damage that in its current state, but all looks well.OK... Big list here... and hopefully a good update for those who want to know what’s fully done to my trans.

Now everything that has been done to my current trans has been done in an odd fashion…
I first purchased a Deluxe rebuild kit from Northern Auto which included all the bonded pistons for the apply clutches, two bands, and more, Part Number #84008EA… The piston are not always needed since they don’t wear out that often and most of the apply pistons have lip seals which come in the soft kit. Also when I purchased this full kit it contained the full bushing kit so I did not have to purchase this separate, I listed all the items separate above because if you buy a full kit you waste money on a set of clutches you won’t use. I didn’t do the math, but if you get a full kit that comes with steels and bushings pistons, and bands (if noted) then you may save some money over buying all individual. I only recently did the Stage 1 kit from Level 10 where I'm replacing all the clutches and steels, and replacing my bands since I found a burnt one, and also putting in all new seals since I'm in there, I'm leaving the bushings alone since they look just fine.
I hope to get some pics up later.
