do you have a special one in there or is it a OEM.. Just asking because i paid $60 for my reman valve body. Now it didn't come with the sensors but just for a quick fix it might be worth the investment.

Its the factory one, I completely tore it down and cleaned it. Then installed the Fairbanks Transaction shift kit and used the towing setting. Going out in a little bit to start this fun project.

Ok so after tons of researching and diagram studying I got this line pressure plug and sleeve kit. Well it solved the stalling issue but it will still slip when warm. So this morning after months of searching found a spare trans for $400 that had what appears to be a fairly new converter and pump. Gonna swap valve bodies in a few weeks when I have time and hopefully all goes well and that solves my issue. If not I have a second trans to put in.............

I'm throwing in the towel on this one. In the process of swapping out the overhauled one for a junkyard one temporarily while I tear this one apart again. Maybe I'll take it to a trans shop this time..........

LOL, I hate auto transmissions. I pay someone to rebuild them.
