Transmisssion weak points

leave the adjustment a little loose on the 5:1 lever. i've heard it'll even bind on a stock truck... i've had the stocker bind on me in the 727. some shift kits (reprogram kits) claim they can solve the exact same issue and dont say anything about the band adjustment.

what about the low reverse piston? i actually just got done putting 300 bucks into PATC parts. i've heard it can **** and get stuck even leading to breakage. according to the trans kit i just bought; you can actually modify the stock piston to prevent the problem, but a new one only runs like 39 bucks or something like that.

np man, i spent a few bucks for these shims from PATC they go in between the pistons on the 2-3 shift supposed to make the shift pretty crisp, the shift reprogram kit i have actually came with a ring and i assume thats the purpose of it... wish i would have know before i spent the extra money on un-needed parts

yeah, i bought the sonax super servo kit, and the sonax accumulator piston. low/reverse piston, the transgo shift kit, heavy duty strut, achor and 5:1 lever. a MagHytec trans pan to polish it off, trans should be a whole new animal. its got a lower stall convertor, just not a "performance" convertor. i'm looking forward to workin on it, just have to wait for better weather. we just got hit with a foot of snow
