So I take it they finally got it right? Correct part and everything?
Yeah, I asked them about any break in period and the said no... Drive the hell out of it! I was surprised to hear that but to be on the safe side, I'm easing any WOT into her, a little at a time... They claim the correct parts are installed and the breakdown sheet from them lists the correct parts.

They did a complete rebuild with the upgrades. I just took her in before she "took a crap".

I hate being stranded!!

Great to hear man! Glad its workinggood for ya. With mine I waited about an hour before I planted my foot on the gas... did a little normal driving and watched the trans temp like a hawk first though.

I will recommend that you pick up a better/bigger trans cooler though and a trans temp gauge. That higer stall can cause you to run on the hot side

Thanks!! Not official but according to the timer, she's in the low 5's to 60 mph.
Not bad for the mileage, weight, 22" tires, and being stock. These trucks have great potential, as seen by some of the other rides on NA...
