I found a web site that sells them for $50 http://www.transmissionsone.com/45rf...s_from_pat.htm

Also, I asked my buddy a couple months ago about this mod and he did not recommend this mod. He said it puts a lot on the internals of the transmission. Hes been rebuilding transmissions for about ten years now. So I take his word a little . Do yall think this is true?

 

Transgo has been using the same resistor in thier shift kits for years and no issues. So i would say it could be safe to use. All this is here is a nice little plug and play piece to make things more simple to add on and take off.

 

i might just have to try this. maybe ill make one monday and see if it makes any difference on an 03. i have a sc and the tmr mod, but neither of them effect my trans so hopefully this will work.

 

With this potentiometer idea couldn't you use bigger resistance? Or is 20watts the most without damage or most effective?

 

i didnt want to wait till monday so on the way to the liquor store i stopped at radioshack and got the stuff i needed. cost me $10 and took all of 10 mins to make. tomorrow morning ill do the connectors on the trans when its daylight again.

 

I am excited to hear how this works for jk360. Totally something I want to try

 

I'd still be scared of using it with a tuner though. If it ups the line pressure and the line pressure is already raised from the tuner, I can see big problems there... A $10 mod that has the potential of doing 2 grand worth of damage does not sound great to me.

 

great write up john! this will be one of my next mods...
does anyone know if the '03 superchips 3815 tune increases line pressure? i doubt it since it doesnt do chit with the tranny...

 

oh, btw... did you get the shuddering issue figured out with that sharadon?

 

i thought the tuner does nothing for the trans on my 03. after adding the tuner i did not notice anything in my shifts. nothing at all. so im assuming this wont be a problem for the 03's. if anyone has any info on that please post so we'll know. im still gonna do the install in the morning and drive around normally for a bit.... to see if it makes a difference.
