th350 overhaul

hey i just got a th350 tranny, bought a rebuild kit from pro-king, but now i just need the service manual for overhaul. i was just wandering if i could find some detailed instructions online instead of buying the manual. hey every penny saved counts. i just usually dont believe in buying books and manuals when u can find the same thing online for free most of the time.

You might try over on ls1tech.com also, if no one here can answer your question. ls1tech is HUGE, heres the link to the auto tranny page, http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=13

I know you don't want to get one, but Autozone sells a book regarding GM transmission overhaul by Haynes and it's a great book - it shows the TH200-4R, the TH350, the TH400/3L80 and the TH700-R4/4L60. I've used it to rebuild all 4 transmissions. It's very in-depth. I think it's around $15. It's also $15 well spent when you're sitting down putting the thing together. If you're not willing to buy the book, you might go to a local library and check it out.

A couple of hints regarding the valve body -

#1, don't let the manual valve fall out of the valve body. That's the valve the shifter ultimately controls.

#2, don't let any lint get on or in the valve body.

yeah i figured it would come down to buying a book, just seeing if you guys knew of anything else. i dont mind it. more options are better than one haha. ill pick up the haynes book tomorrow and probaby start rebuilding it around december 8th, that way i will have a garage to work in at my parents house. haha right now its just sittin my room at my apt.
