Transmission upgrade
The next step for my truck has got to be a tranny.. My stock ally is hating life right now. I have it narrowed down to Suncoast, ATS, or Gorearend.. I been leaning towards a Gorearend... Any thoughts or advice would be awesome!!:argh:

We have had great luck with Suncoast on the Allison Transmissions.

Suncoast all the way they got it down!!! Our shop truck(jim's) is running 11's and sled pulling all the time with his stage 4 and has not missed a beat!
|
Suncoast stage 4 is the way to go. I have had no issues with mine for nearly two years now. Its held up like a champ for everything I have put it through.
|
On a different note, what would you guys recommend for a truck that will have roughly 450 ponies to the wheels? whole tranny, or just TC, valve body and shift kit?
sorry for the stupid rookie question, but i am not too educated with trans |
Suncoast is some of the best they have a nice D-max kit and for 450HP its not worth it to do the whole thing just the basic rebuild kit a TC (thats the weak link) and a shift kit

And Dodge Boy go back to where you belong.:c: |
Would it be wise to upgrade the TC as well, just for safe measure, or would I be wasting my money doing that as well???

No, the TC is a weak link but not the main one. The C3 clutch pack is the weak link the ally tranny. I would recommend getting a P-2 Planetary Spacer, Modified C3 Pressure Plate, C3 Frictions & Steels, Converter Lockup valve and shift kit. You can all of that for about 650 bucks get 50 back in a core charge.
