Stock Torque Converter from '05 Ram 1500
I've got an OEM torque converter that was in perfect working condition from my '05 Ram 1500 with about 30k miles on it. Just seeing if anyone is interested in buying either for a replacement or a core charge on an aftermarket converter. Asking $150

How long ago was it removed? How has it been stored? Was all fluid drained or ends capped to protect against moisture/rust damage?

It worked perfectly and was not abused on the truck because I was afraid what the mods would do to it. After throwing in the APS torque converter, that's a different story.. :]

It was removed about 11 months ago. All fluid was drained and it has been capped.

Aye, same reasoning i'm leaning towards the injects. The truck just rolled over 50k so it's not a whole ton of miles. It could probably use a new set of wires but i really doubt they're too bad. I had the same issue with the original champions though, I changed the plugs hoping it might be related (and they were due for a change anyway).
Buddy, this sounds like more a fluke experience for you. These transmissions have been known to be solid and routinely get 150-200k before a rebuild. A lot also depends on how you are about servicing. I've got around 70k on my truck and installed a deep transmission pan and have changed the fluid + filters twice in the 40k miles I've had it. I also have a high stall converter. I don't expect to have a trans issue anytime soon.

And you know that torque converter wasn't replaced under warranty shortly after I bought the truck then? My truck only has 76k on it as it sits. Original owner put 31k on it. Slipping issues probably 7-10k miles after I bought it related to a defective flat filter in the pan. Torque converter clutches were toast. No problems since. There was a Wix filter in the tranny.

No problem. Just post up your warranty papers and it wont be an issue. I'm certain nobody would have an issue buying a legit warrantied item.
Thanks.

I did actually make a post a while back recommending Mopar filters only and made mention of the Wix as I know their oil filters are very popular. This is why. I don't know where the heck those warranty papers are though I just bought a house this past summer so anything like that is either hidden in a box or thrown out during the move. This sale isn't worth the effort of looking for it.

You should be able to go to the dealer that did the repairs and get a copy. That should be easy enough.
If not worth your time then I can close the thread if you would like.
I understand your frustration, but I hope you can understand from an outside perspective that I am only looking out for the members of DF.
