If selling a t/a unit as rebuilt and standing behind the work, short cutting by just fixing the ramp, rollers and carrier roller contact surface won't get it. Common for shaft splines to be worn, sometimes bearings that can't be inspected unless unit is disassembled are bad. If the pilot needle bearing on the transmission input shaft part goes bad and ruins the shaft thats a big cost. Planet gears and shafts needle bearings sometimes have inbedded places in the shafts or gears or worse. Ends of planet gears and thrust plates sometimes gall.
Don't know about others, but I can't compete with rebuilt unit prices on the repair of one if labor cost is included unless most parts of the unit are good for reuse. Wouldn't go through the work of removing and installing a T/A unit without a complete check and clean up. Doing your own without a guarantee or labor costs may be different.
Probably you can rebuild the unit.
