Default transgo hd2 shiftkit

I have my transmission at the transmission shop getting the shift kit installed. he has everything done but lifted up the tray in the box and there is that box of springs. does anyone ever install all these springs. the transmission guy said he had to tear deeper into the transmission in order to install these.

The transmission guy should follow the directions.
The Transgo kit has one of the nicest layouts & instruction worksheets there is.
If following along the worksheet, he should have known when/where to use them.

Did you read thru the worksheet yourself to indentify the pieces?
I did. But needless to say, I haven't had time to do the install yet, ...

Sorry, I don't have your answer tho, ..., worthless reply heh?!?

well he said all the major parts are done and he was just making sure he wasnt missing anything so he lifted up the little tray where that box of springs was and he called me and asked if i wanted those all installed as well but he said he'd have to tear the transmission apart in order to install them. i dont think those box of springs is in the instructions

I just installed this kit on my 4l65e, I was told the extra springs were optional and used if the trans was completely disassembled.
