I think the kit may have the instructions. I don't recall any writeup on it on the site. Advise when you get it, please.

I installed the K1 and K2 springs from the kit with no problems. The included instructions are limited, but sufficent. There are several write ups for the K1 kit from Mercedes, and most of those would be applicable.
Here's a thread on the Superior Kit: Superior Shift Correction kit - anybody tried one? Here's some instructions on the K1 kit: http://articles.mbz.org/transmission/k1/ http://www.hevanet.com/patbob/MercedesK1SpringKit/SpringKitInstall.html Hope this helps. |

This reminds me that I should get back to my shift kit installation video series for the Superior kit and the 722.3xx series. I pulled a valve body and everything and started the videos but then I got side tracked. I had plans to illustrate the whole kit and installation into the valve body. I was even going to split the valve body and show that procedure. I hope I can get this done on my car and make the video within 6 months. Things have just been taking priority lately; like getting married, etc!

Thanks! I should be more accurate and say engaged. We are not married yet but on 10/11/2014 we will be.
The videos I plan to do would go over installing springs in every piston just for the sake of reference.

I ordered mine from ebay.
Word of warning: Install only the parts of the kit you think you need! I found the stacked shift correction spring made my trans shift way too late and I had to take everything apart a 2nd time. -J
