I'm on my 3rd tranny, no boosted launches or hard shifts. I've blown 3rd gear into pieces once, 2nd gear twice. Twisted my input shaft like a pretzel once also.

839 1500+ on all factory parts nv4500 except lock nut & Input. It's all in how hard you are on one!

Of course...I do have a couple twisted inputs to show off

I daily drove this truck at almost 700 for 2 years!
