yes event always seemed to fall on may 31/june 1 or first full weekend in June they then moved it to mid may and weather most times was worse.. NOW usually last weekend in august or damn near it.. again powers that be never listen I think weekend after Carlisle would have been perfect to try and get the vendors to stay in the area.. oh well they know better than the actual MOPAR owners


now back to the truck


YES it already has the towing package and that BIG BEAUTIFUL OIL COOLER!!.. looking like Daytona is where im going to end up so im looking at 1k trip one way and probably 2 trips down and back... all highway fortunately but still I don't trust these transmissions even though it was rebuilt because all I got was a receipt showing the rebuild and cost so I don't know what went in to it BUT I can tell it isn't performance or towing..

That's outrageous. You can do it yourself in a couple hours. MonteC recommended the Sonax Sure Cure kit, and the Trans Go shift kit. Yes, there is some overlap between the two, but, you get firmer, crisper shifts, can check fluid level in park, and a few other goodies.

4 herniated/2 fused discs in cervical, 3 herniated in thoracic and 2 blown out and needing fusion in lumbar means I cant do it myself.. this is what happens when a case of paper 55lbs falls on your head, you end up in bad shape physically and 1" shorter... LOLOL could have been worse could have ended up paralyzed..


read all through MonteCs thread and everything he recommended I would have done BUT at $400 just for a shift kit install not sure I would even want to ask about the sure cure, this is why I was leaning towards a performance built throttle body and just having it installed

Yeah, I guess you ain't gonna be crawling around under there..... Ooops.

Check a couple other shops, you should be able to find a better price.....
