Anyone ever use the repair kits for fixing the impact damage on the separator plate from the steel check *****? How about the torlon plastic check *****? Good, bad, unecessary?
The plate generally last 100,000 miles without any problems. It's easy enough to replace the plate and steel ***** at that point. As mentioned above, torlon ***** aren't necessarily an improvement.
I use Seat Repair Kit's all the time for the 2nd Clutch on 4L60E's, On 4L80E's, I replace the plate & use steel checkballs.
Torlon Checkballs do not damage the plate. But, They wear out eventually to the point they get small enough to pass right through the Plate.

Are you buying the separator plate from Transtar or GM? I thought I've read somewhere that aftermarket plates are junk....
