so i'm doin alot of research and i'm just wondering if someone can juss make sure im on the right mind set

the picture could those be clutch plates? there said to be from level 10 so i'm curious if there to strengthen the clutch?

double clutchs - so rather then havin a single clutch fill with oil and then shifting on the pressure of the single clutch, 2 clutchs are filled with oil increasing pressure and speed for faster shifts?

double bands- as far as i know the bands are used in stopping the transmission from spinning? i'm guessing it means from spinning and missing gear?

the only thing i can't guess at is thetransfer gears i dont get 1.22's

double bands are just a a method to increase shidt

I don't know much about autos so I can't really help. My advice would be to call level 10 and pick their brains for some info. They should be able to shed some light on what is in that picture.

Howstuffworks.com has a good article abour how automatics work, so that might clear up what part does what.
