Shift kit in a used transmission

Just wondering if it is a bad idea to put a shift kit used 700r4?

If the transmission is still OK, then installing a Trans-go kit can extend the life of it.

Re: Shift kit in a used transmission

Look to see if the bottom of the pan is clean or has very little clutch/band material in it. This will be away from the magnet. If it is clean, then installing the Shift kit and Corvette servo should help it work better and live longer. I offer the modified TransGo Shift kits that will give you what you need and want here. Let me know if I can be of help.
