tow worthy

[hydrashocker]

So did you cut weight on the car because if you didn't I'd weigh it BC I checked in on it and it says 3,200 lbs? regardless, 3:55 gearing coupled with 2700 lbs for the car and 1600 for an open deck car hauler is 4,300 lbs. First you need to find out what VIN# you have and match it to this table. You will have to weigh in on a scale to be sure.

Then your in luck!


Take the truck in and get the Transgo kit. If you do it when you do a transmission fluid filter then the shop is at the valve body already. It will cost like $150 for just the fluid/filter so do it at the same time for another $150. Tottal should be like $300 plus the cooler. If you have the 4.7L then;


Kit #:

45RFE-HD2

Get a transmission cooler while your there.

will do sir. i just had the trans serviced last year but i am sure it wont hurt to have it done again. im sure they could adjust the bands at the same time.

is part number for summitracing?

[schusterjo]

4.7 has 45RE and does not have bands.... therefore no band adjustment.

[hydrashocker]

I forgot dude........LOL


Ya, no trans adjustment on the 45RE.


No, that is the number of the kit directly from Transgo site. www.transgo.com

[carbophat]

sorry to semi-jack the thread, but I have a 4.7 V8 3.55 as well, wouldn't be easier to drop the back end and swap it out for a 3.92? It should be a simply swap?

[Trapstud]

unless you have a 4x4 and then you have to switch out the gears in front as well. that will go for a lot more than the shift kit.

[Dans01Durango]

No trans band adjustments??? Whew! At least that's a load off my mind!
