The day I have been fearing for about a year and a half is finally here. My transmission on my 2000 Ram is slipping and bad! I was wondering if there was anyone out there who has found a transmission that they are happy with. Price is not a problem right now, so if someone could tell me what transmission is good for my truck I would appreciate it. I am looking to upgrade to something that can take a beating and still work as hard as the day i bought em.

 

go with a manual.

 

suncoast or a goerend will do you nicely

 

Heard some good things about HTS transmissinons. They're in Michigan shouldn't be too far from you.

 

Is it possible to go from auto to manual without spending a fortune. I would probably consider a manual when my tranny goes, if its feasible.

 

ATS is also an alternitive. Seems like it's a personal preference.

Sometimes you get what you pay for, or in this case sometimes, get what you don't pay for.

A regular stock re-build may be fine if your're running stock performance. If you are hot-roddin, you may need more built up trans.

There are more techno savy folks here than me, just my $.02

 

yea or you could do what i'll call the "bigriver strategy" and buy a brand new mega cab CTD and then throw a complete built to the teeth ATS tranny that will last forever. probably the best way to do things i've ever seen. because now he never has to worry

 

Yeah RIGHT !!
