OK really  ;) depending on the mileage and abuse your ride has gone through since the last clutch, I would consider replacing it if it is getting old and a rear main seal while you have it apart.

If you don't have the shop full of special tools required to service an auto trans internally, I'd take Zukipilot's advice in his first post. Let a pro do it. Stick to changing the fluids and filter, and let someone who knows what their doing tear into it. My 2 cents.

Why it's fun to chase all those little balls around your shop floor.
esp when they end up under your steel shelving that has just enough clearance for the valving balls and not your magnet to get them.
Which is why I'm a manual kind of guy all the way. big gear disc's are harder to lose.

Can some one buy fancy up-graded clutch disks for a Kick auto in the first place? ???

How about a torque converter and valve body for the same tranny?
