Look online at eBay and other popular trans parts sources(most do list on eBay now), try to find a direct clutch that has the pistons also, even compare to a complete drum(seals and clutches installed). Depending on the time, luck etc, it can be more feasible to buy the whole assembly, but sometimes just the pieces are better or cheaper to get.
I think I'd replace that planetary also, that surface where the center support rides in it might be hurt, it's impossible for me or others to tell by a picture. Judge that well, if you think it may be worn even slightly(out of round), that could contribute to future issues.
The ring gear is fine at the machined line etc, that's normal and doesn't affect the surfaces that contact each other.
You are replacing all of the solenoids too, the range sensor(DTRS), and accumulators too of course? That Sonnax Sure Cure kit has their o-ring kit in it and all but one newer made item included. If you wanted to change the two main accumulator springs by choice, the popular two used for the J'Mod are almost always listed on eBay by a few users. One has had them often for about $25 for the pair most of when I've been browsing.
