gotta love when you turn in an application and he picks up a stack of applications that is as thick as a ream of paper and puts it underneath them......it isnt worth the gas to drive around and look, and the ones advertise for are ones that pay 7$ an hour and are like 20 miles away so you break even everyday working, you dont make anything or you end up owing someone money at the end of the week LOL.....

 

My 1st gen. has a auto with O/D should I be worry about the trans. after just tuning the pump and swapping out the exhaust housing or should I upgrade trans. (like torque convertor and shift kit...maybe valve body before I do anything with the engine

 

dont be stupid with it and it will last, best thing to do is keep it out of overdrive in town so it isnt bogging......

 

that i will do, but eventually I going to be putting a better tranny in it, I want to convert it a tranny with a lock up torque convertor or a nv5600

 

go talk to Jeff Nidiffer, he is the head instructor over the Off-road club, he might be able to get one of the drivelines classes to put a healthy automatic together for ya, he is the 4x4 "guy" at the school.....McPherson is good too......

 

I fully built tranny is going have to wait until Im out of college and have a real job..college student equals no money..but I was thinking maybe a shift kit or valve body and a torque convertor deeper pan..for now...the previous owner claims that the tranny has 20,000miles on her but no receipt to prove it and the truck has been babied from what I've seen, I will post a pic. as soon as possible.

 

talk to Mr. Hammel then, he is the tranny parts guy, he gets good deals on stuff.....

 

I might just do that..im looking at a suncoast tc and b&m shift kit or trans go not sure yet

 

he deals in trans-go, about the best thing out their, i doubt he can get suncoast though.....

 

Yeah I just shopping around now
I will try get of hold of him though..... I can get a shift kit right away but the torque convertor may need to wait a little longer
