Hello, I am Randall

Since side cover has to be removed, rather involved job. yes, depending on your pocket book or wallet.. I would highly suggest

1) 1-2 shift solenoid
2) 2-3 shift solenoid
3) TCC soleneoid ( torque converter)

all are at ends of the valve body

the TCC solenoid has failry high failure rate

This is all you need to focus on.

use a good trans fluid

Maybe an additve like Lucas to help lube even more and all should be ok

The others you write about are pressure related and very rarely fail

the shift solenoids and TCC are important and best to do while there and work to get to them thus saving in long run
