The seal is molded to the pistons, so no, you can't install them backward.
After the re-learn, it seems to work smooth from what I can remember, no binding, dragging, or flares. Until its too late 2-3 months later.
I guess I'm not fluent enough to really know if the tune IS or IS'NT working correctly. I'm wondering if I can watch shift times on my Snap-On Solus, once I go back through this and clutch it again and complete a re-learn.
I actually have an Empire Diesel D solenoid, have since I last...
Just as it says,
-Suncoast kit with OE new direct solenoid the first time, set the direct clearance .055 ish. Lasted 3 months.
-Used Alto commercial direct pak 2nd time, increased clearance to .080 from worry of directs dragging. Lasted a little over 2 months.
All other frictions look good...
