Trans rebuild manual??
I restore classic 60s Cadillacs as a hobby, and a few others, and rebuild most any tranny using ATSG manuals. Literally anyone with a brain and good tools can use these guides.
So has anyone found a comparable manual/guide to rebuild the H4A family of transmission in Accords? I enjoy doing the work, saves LOTS of money and just feels good when finished. Just need a guide to know about the tricky parts going in.
Thanks to all in advance.

Thanks Toecutter. I do have some Helms for certain vehicle, ATSG for trannys, dealer service manuals for yet others. I have ordered an actual paper accord manual. Yes it was pricey but I like having a physical manual.
Reason I asked about something like ATSG is that they are geared to the true rebuilder. Lots of tips and tricks, common missteps, etc. When the manual arrives I'll check to see how in depth in gets.
One other question, since all the Accords I've owned have been wagons, is the gearing in the wagon trans different than a sedan or coupe due to weight? Hoping not cuz plan is to source a trans, rebuild it, set it aside for later install.
Anyhow, thanks again.
