Yes. If it has the loading cap. I will have to open some of my 802s up it has been a long time and I don't remembr if the ones I have had the loading caps or not. But I have removed them from 808s and 908s. Basically as far as the way the diaphram mounts is identical in the 802 or 902. Three screws hold the assembly in place. Some models just have the screws going through the mount of the diapram, and others have this plastic thing put on top, and the screws must also go through this thing. When you remove this cap,you removed thickness that the screw would otherwise have to have gone through, and now the screws are too long. This is why you need the shorter screws. To me, the high end gains both in transient response and extension. Easy to change back. Don't forget the felt pads for the back covers.

Cheers,
Russellc
