Yea on the pics way I fixed it was hit those 3 little bars for the menu at the top and click view full site. I'll def check unin the check valve thing bc that would be aggravating but if that's what killed mine I wouldn't mind it!!!

Nah, the only thing removing the check valve does (aside from saving your trans....) is it delays gear engagement a couple seconds if the truck has been sitting overnight. It's barely even noticeable.

Oh I misunderstood then I'll delete mine. Knock on wood *hits head* the junkyard tranny I swapped in when I went from diesel to gas has 16X,000 miles and is still strong. Can't adjust the bands though I tried need a special socket I guess for the rear.

Yeah overnight you won't notice the check valve being gone. Seems to take a few days before it's noticeable. It you install the Surecure kit, it flows fluid in park and then doesn't matter. You check your fluid in park after the Surecure also. The whole reason for the check valve is because these trannys don't flow fluid in park to fill the system. It was stupid.

Gotta agree with that.
