Sonnax 4R44E-5R55E Solenoid, Valve-body bolt length/location and spring info

[tac40]

Hi all,

As I continue along my "5R55E adventure" and read through related threads and helpful-hint postings, one question that I see over and over again is regarding valve-body bolt-length and location. For me, I've found that page 6 of the Sonnax Zip booklet is about the best reference I've seen. I apologize if this is posted elsewhere, but if not, I just wanted to share the link to the 8-page doc as well as a copy of page 6 in picture form. It not only has a very clear bolt-length and location reference, but also has solenoid ID and resistance info, and valve-spring info as well. Anyway, here it is....
