Judging by some of the threads I have read, I got the impression that a few of our fellow members were experiencing some problems with banging noises in the tranny, hard shifts, not making the last shift. Perhaps I was hallucinating. I hate when that happens.

I was one of those posts that had shifting problems from 3rd to 4th. Turned out to not be the tranny but a bad contact in the wiring harness. Otherwise no problem and I've pulled my 5er around 6000 miles with this baby.

I am not really a fan of autos in any of my vehicles and had an 01 2500 HO/6sp. There are some situations that the 6sp was a pain in the %&^(^. This HO/48re combo has been great and has made a believer out of me. Th 4.10s really help this truck liven up!
