I have an '85 Celica with a busted A40D.

I have the rebuild kit already and the ATSG manual to fix it. I
don't have the special service tools though. Has anyone (reading this
newsgroup) purchased these to do this rebuild? Are they outrageously
expensive?

Is it a pretty straight-forward rebuild or any pitfalls to watch for?

OTC supplies the SST's for Toyota in North America. Check out their web
site at otctools.com. The SST's make the job go a lot more quickly.

Pre-soak the clutch packs while you are working on the rest of the
transmission.

You're welcome! (BTW, pre-soaking the clutch packs is a pretty old trick).

i noticed after i read your message when i looked in the ATSG guide
for this transmission to get the SST numbers, that it tells you to
soak the clutches in several places.. lol
