Really I have been looking for trans upgrades for my 2004.5 but not been able to find Cheap prices or they are cheap but still out of my price range at this point in time.... Doghousediesel.com best prices I found so far I've bought a few things from their and he beat everybody's price that i have seen.. Somethings on Ebay I've heard some bad horror stories about people buying trans parts off of their... Like getting the wrong parts.... and someone installs the part for you, costs you money.
then your paying labor again to R&R or doing it yourself... Plus I have been hearing horror stories about ATS trans parts are not meeting up to peoples requirements. I think that they are using that truck and trans for something other then what its supposed to do. Like tractor pulls and drag racing..
Goerend transmissions and Suncoast are okay but then again they cost money...

yep, i would go with goerend, heard nothing but good things from them, i hate auto's, but i do follow it alot, a valve body is a good start, a converter would be very good too... then there are the rest of the internals.... yet probably still A LOT cheaper than ats, espacially if you can do the work yourself
