Default TransGo 700r4 shift kit instructions

Lost documentation on this shift kit and would like to have a digital copy for references because I am going to go back into tranny once again. Does anyone have this shift kit installation instruction where they can possibly share with me. Thanks Carl

I have tried to search site but am not a member and do not see no download section for any manuals. Could someone direct me to the correct link if available.

Thanks again,
Carl

http://transgo.com/contact.php

It looks like there is no longer directions on their page, I thought there used to be. I would contact them and ask for directions and suggest they put them back on the page.

Which shift kit is better, B&M or Transgo?

And does it really extend the life of your tranny? I figured it would be harder on it??

Thanks

From reading other responses, Trans Go is the better of the two.

Are there other choices out there?

Which would be better for a daily driver, leave it alone, or add a shift kit? I'm mainly interested in the claim that it extends the life of the tranny.

Sadly , I almost can quote them
The transgo 700 2&3 kit is the most complete, and is quite complicated. It is considered a reprogramming kit because it revamps more than simply valve body changes.
Use caution when installing this kit. It is marketed to professional builders. Therefore, if you call transgo for assistance, they will ask the name of your shop. When you tell them that you are a do it yourselfer, they cop an attitude and offer little assistance.
Although most of us gearheads can do the install, it separates the men from the boys.

Damn it, I was afraid you would say that just when I was enjoying my boyhood again! Many thanks again to you, it wouldn't have happened without your help.
