Here is a comparison pic of the old parts on the rag compared to all the new parts in the diagram. You can see the 2 return springs added in front of the better designed TV valve (ribbed lobes for better lubrication and movement) and the spacers behind the plunger for better shift pressures. I also added the diesel shim. The guy in that video says that is ok to do for all engines. So far this has cured my transmission TV valve issues.
