Maybe this one? (and I would seriously consider the bushing kit for 22 bucks as well.) Still would need a torque converter, but, at least this one comes with both bands....... (apparently.)

Maybe talk to one of your local transmissions shops, and see what THEY use.......

Replace the possibly worn bushings in the trans. (likely need to press them out/in....) Bearing/seal driver would likely work.

ok, and this is a good kit for a completely watered out trans? Like I said it was submerged under water and clutches slipped, this kit will fix it?

I have no experience with it..... So, I don't know about quality. But, it *should* work. Just make sure that everything is CLEAN and DRY when you put it back together.

Ok so the transmissions rebuilt and in it moves! But, now it doesn’t want to downshift on its own, any ideas?
