Solution: With the strongest snap ring (3 mm), I was just at the upper wear limit, so I accepted it.
I'm not sure if I'm using the correct English technical terms here, sorry.
My English skills have deteriorated somewhat.

That's really interesting. I also overhauled my transmission, but when I was researching spare parts, I never came across a transmission repair kit. I didn't find anything about it here in the forum either, although very few people here repair their transmissions themselves. Thanks to your post, I found them on eBay.de from German sellers. Unfortunately, I don't need them anymore. However, the brake bands are missing from these kits (sorry, I don't know the correct english term).

I didn't drill out the rivets on the K1 and K2 because the seals were still in good condition. The WIS describes how to check the seals. I'm not familiar with the ATSG manual.
If you haven't planned to, I would definitely open and clean the control valve box, but be careful with the balls. They can be lost very easily. Be sure to take photos of them, it will make reassembly easier.
Viele Grüße

Does anybody know where this rebuild kit from a german company can be purchased in Germany?? I couldn't find any supplier for it. Strange!!
Bob, you did apparently buy it from cobratransmissions.com, right? On their webpage I don't either see that they sell this kit.
Cheers,
Lutz

Hello Lutz,
do not think this is a German Company.
But why do they use "Made in Germany" in the logo?

The parts of their kit are made in germany, so that's fine
But why do they use "Made in Germany" in the logo?
