F'ed up the other day on the way home and down shifted going 70 into 2nd instead of upshifting into 4th, redlined for about a second. After reading into the AP1 retainers and their issues with cracking overtime and especially after mechanically redlining I am looking to do some preventive maintenance to get piece of mind. Anyone with experience replacing retainers and adjusting valves? I have AP2 OEM retainers on the way and I'm mechanically inclined and able to do most work on anything but I am slightly worried about doing this on my own. I will throw some cash and beer your way if you are willing to help. Otherwise I'm just going to bite the bullet and take it to Chi at Dynasty next week.

 

just take it to chi at dynasty and have him do it

 

If you're down in Miami/Palm Beach I do the job regularly. I could help you out.

 

i went from top of 2nd into first. i had Chi do mine. only on the intake side. turns out all of mine were actually okay

 

better safe then sorry. but dave is a worry wart lol

 

Fixed that for ya.

 

very true lol

 

hey now, stop it steven

 

I had LHT do mine in my 00 just to be on the safe side. My S had no retainers cracked or distorted
