howso? the planetaries sit right on top of the vcu unit - which would be technically easier to get to? (even tho its almost necessary to pull everything in the vcu unit to fit it together). unless you're talking about the *entire* vcu housing, but if that's what you're doing you have to take the tranny even further apart than just the endcap - which is an even bigger pita imo?
