So after all you guys nailed it. Looks like a new transmission in my future. Or a part our to pay the loan. Have to find out what is better for us. Thanks for all the feedback I really appreciate it.

 

I toll you seeeeniorr..............

 

I know I just didn't want to hear it kind of like a teenager.

 

If ya go with a stock rebuild, its not so bad. But, if you want the VB, billet this, that, and the other, triple disc converter a such, it can get quite pricey. My stock trans went at just under 176k (just filed that receipt), but I also towed heavy and wasn't very nice to the trans. I probably would have gone longer.....probably. A stock rebuild would have run me $2,100ish. That's removal, rebuild, and installation. But I wanted much stronger, with VB, 3-disc converter, billet input shaft, other billet goodies etc, and it ran me $4,754. and change for removal, rebuild, installation.

 

I wish I could do transmission work. It is way to expensive. It has the billet part in it. I am not entirely sure how many miles where on it and even if it is completely gone. Having a second opinion from RPM. Still holding out for better news but not holding my breath.

 

Yeah, I hear ya. Well good luck and let us know what you come up with.

 

So I am getting the transmission rebuilt finally. Any opinions on a shift kit or no?

 

Trans all done. Complete rebuild 3500.00

 

Nice! Now go forth and burn rubber my little grasshopper.....
