If it ain't broke........ You have to remove the pan to adjust the rear band. So it's normally done when you change the filter. You can however do the front one without pan removal. BTW, you'll need an inch pound torque wrench.

+1 zman. If it ain't broke; don't fix it. I never adjusted my bands until I had to drop the trans out and do work on it. Now that I am taking care of my trans I plan to change the filter/fluid and adjust the bands on a regular interval.
