5r110 Torqshift Building
 

Hopefully this is the correct place for this thread!
I am running a cummins powered 04 superduty, with a 5r, along with a pcs controller. Today I was driving the truck, and will admit, I was ragging on it fairly hard. To may knowledge according to the PO, the trans is completely stock. Now to my knowledge, these trans' are usually good up to around 500hp, driving within reason. My cummins is roughly 500-+, so I figured it was living on edge anyways.

Now,
The trans is completly fine taking off, and running through 2nd, and most of 3rd, then it begins to slip, BAD. To the point where it is about undriveable. I am assuming this will mean pulling the trans and doing a full rebuild. Now, Like most others I am on a budget, and am not looking for the best of the best, but want good stuff within reason. Would someone mind reccomending me a list of parts to do so at a reasonable cost? I have no problem building the trans myself, I am just new the 5r world, and am not sure where to start, or what is worth upgrading. The truck will stay 4-500 hp, and is a dd. Occasionally I have a heavy foot, and yes the truck gets beat on here and there. I am not going to lie about it. Also, is it worth purchasing a TQ converter while I am in there doing it all? I would prefer to stay under ~800 for the trans parts, and I guess I will bite the bullet if I need a converter as well.

Thanks guys!

Nobody?
