I have a '79 450SL that had a bad modulator on the trans (bad seal; i.e vacuum leak). When I removed the modulator, there was a metal rod and spring attatched to it. Is there anything else that is supposed to come out with the modulator? I really feel that I missed something here when reassembling. I have yet to drive the car as it is on jack stands getting new subframe mounts, tie rods, steering gear box and coupler. I dont want to drive it until I have verification that my work is correct.


Has anyone else changed these, or have any experience on these trannys?????
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
