I recently completed rebuilding the rear axle.  Since I am this far into the car, I plan on rebuilding the transmission.  The car has 155,00 miles or 249,448 Kilometers.  I am looking for recommendations on sourcing Master rebuild kits.  Mercedes only sells individual parts..........  All suggestions are welcome. 

 

Thanks!
Bob

I'm not aware of any Master Conversion Kits available, except for a gasket kit.

I also bought everything in separate parts.

What was the most serious problem you found when rebuilding your ATX?  Did you have to replace any components in the valve body?  Purchasing individual parts can get expensive!

Thanks!

The biggest problem was getting a new outer disc for the disc carrier. Not all thicknesses were available.
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.

Your English is fine! I do understand what you are referring to. There is a German Company that sells a Master rebuild kit. I plan on purchasing that and then purchase individual parts from MB as I need them. MB should really have a kit for this transmission. Purchasing all parts individually gives new meaning to an American expression of being "nickeled and dimed to death!"

Thanks!

I order a Banner Rebuild kit for the 722.313 ATX. along with oil pump bushing.  I will replace steels on an individual basis as needed.  The kit is manufactured by a German company.  Torque Converter will be inspected, separated, cleaned and rebalance by a local company that rebuilds torque converters.  I'm not leaving anything to change on a approximately 40 year old auto.

Thanks!
