I have a 2001 dodge 2500 5.9 ltr with 171,000 on it. I'm wanting to do some performance upgrades to it not much just like a cold air a juice with attitude chip and maybe sometime down the road new injectors. I'm wanting to rebuild my tranny though and was wondering if theres any certain kits i need to get. Or whats the best bang for my buck?

 

to the site..

Suncoast,DTT and Goerend transmissions.Do you want to rebuild it yourself or do you know a person to do it.If so a suncoast master rebuilt kit with a TC and Valve body will work nice.Luke at diesel dawgs will hook you up with this kit.

Or if you want to exchange your trans for one that is are ready done you can do that to.

 

I know the owner of one of the shops in town and was just gonna have him do it for me. Just wanted to get some advice on which rebuild kit to get

 

I just got mine back from a shop in Red Deer. They used a Banger Overhaul Kit including High Energy Clutches. 3xBillet T/C, Biller Input Shaft, Billet Fwd Servo, changed all solenoids, transducers, and servos. It is 1000% better then ever. T/C is also locking, preffy much makes it a 6 speed!

 

Suncoast Extreme Rebuild
Suncoast Triple Disc Converter
Suncoast VB
Suncoast Billet Input Shaft
Suncoast Billet Flex Plate

 

After u figure out what u want u can put it up in the price quote away and get an idea of what it's going to set u back...
Oh btw welcome to DIESEL BOMBERS!!!! Happy u took my advice and joined!!!

 

Whole different animal when the TC locks up when it shifts in second gear and stays that way until it goes below 10 mph.At least that is the way mine is.

 

It's a way different beast now! In O/D, with T/C locked up, 1250 RPM at 50MPH! Before it was about 1700 -1800 RPM. The overhead display has shown an average increase of 3 mpg at most speeds.

 

Suncoast VB and HD clutch packs, and Goreand converter IMO

 

How much did that set you back?
