What your stock trans rebuilt? Or is that an after-market trans? My truck is pretty much stock but I have no programers and been afraid my trans will slip like crazy!! My cummins has 91,000K on it and trans has been serviced atleast 3 times. What kind of hp and programs are u guys running with stock trans??
