I would look for a billet TC one less thing to break (easily). I googled them there seem to be a few for about the $600 mark.

AHH, I was just curious never heard someone use the term when Modding a vehicle. Gotcha now Quiet so it doesnt push the nag button, and good MPG so you dont have to listen to how much you are spending in fuel

I have a 2001 Ram 2500 Cummings and put the BD Banks triple lock torque converter in it, love it for towing my 5th wheel trailer, locks up good and never searches for the gear to be in, getting 17 mpg towing 11,400 pound trailer and without the trailer getting 20 mpg.
