I would burn my pickup to the ground before I ever run anything from ATS. They are a shady company with poor customer service to say the least.

Only transmissions I would run is BTS or john woods.

BTS and john woods have great warranties. I Think BTS is 2 year and they pay shipping, after 2 years you have to pay shipping if something goes wrong

So you got an axe to grind with ATS? Let's hear it. Exactly why do you think they suck so bad and don't honor the warranty?

Heard the same story about them over and over and over. Better read the fine print in there warranty, if you run the wrong type of pixie dust they will tell you to pound sand.
