Do you really need to use a puller to remove the pump?
Yes and no. I thread a couple bolts in and use a seal puller tool on the head of the bolts. Look up Hiram Gutierrez (I think) on you tube. He has a very good tear down video on this trans. He shows step by step.Do you really need to use a puller to remove the pump?

I love his videos. He does really good work too.Yeah Hiram Gutierrez is more my style, use what you have. A seal puller is alot cheaper than a slide hammer.
Good job on tear down! The frictions don’t look terrible, but it’ll be good to replace them. That direct drum looks fine, from what I can tell. You may be seeing what it looks like after it’s stamped. Does the stock forward drum look like that?
That output shaft play looks a tad excessive. Pull that snap ring band slide that shaft out. Look at the splines on the shaft and the drum very carefully.
I guess it’s about normal for a worn out trans. How long has it been since you added that pan, how many miles?
If all of the clutches look decent, I would be worried about the torque converter being bad. Especially since you had a tcc code, it may have damaged the lockup clutch. What converter do you have and are you planning to replace it?The trans has over 100k miles, but the pan wasn't on there that long. When I started getting the P0740 code and decided to replace the the 2 solenoids, I decided to install this pan while I was at it. Could be left over crud from when I added the new fluids and it just flushed what was in the system into the pan. I didn't see any gnarly damage on anything in the internals.
