Oh yeah, There was absolutley nothing wrong with the transmission before I adjusted the bands. It shifted like it was brand new.

Why'd you adjust the bands if it shifted fine?

If it ain't broke don't fix it. =)

You sure don't sound too upset about your dad shelling out another $1600 bucks... Hell, if I were him, you wouldn't be working on it again not because the transmission is new, but because I wouldnt take any costly chances like that.

But thats just my 2 cents.

Heres a better one my dad said when I blow mine up I'm on the shoe leather express and riding big yellow. I know that he is not going to fix it so I'm working a lot more now just waiting for it to go.
