Inspection Before reassembling the transmission, the individual parts should be carefully checked to eliminate those damaged from previous service. This inspection procedure should be carefully followed to insure the maimum of wear life from the rebuilt unit. The cost of a new part is generally a small fraction of the total cost of downtime and labor, should the use of a questionable part make additional repairs necessary before the next regularly scheduled overhaul.
