Default Which shift kit to put in 47rh?

Hi guys i'm looking into putting a shift kit in my tranny and am looking at the transgo tf0d. What I don't know is should I be getting the TFOD or the TFOD-2? Any input is appreciated thanks.

If it was my truck I would just get the whole valve body for Goerend transmission and be done with it. It's setup perfectly and all you do is put it in and go. No screwing around

After doing a bit of research I definitely agree with you on that, I shouldn't waste my time on a shift kit when I can do the whole thing.. I see that I can get a bd valve body for my truck for around $550 online including shipping. The georend looks to be around $370 after a core charge but thats not including shipping of the core and the georend VB. What do you think the best route is?

I've used both a BD and a Suncoast Valve Body and I was not impressed with either one of them to be honest.

Goerend is the dodge transmission guru/whisperer. I've never had issues or didn't feel his products didn't improve the truck

the perfect shift kit for the 47re would be from in the truck to out of the truck. LOLOLOLOL
