HTS trannys ?

Im thinking about installing a HTS billet tranny for my 06 CTD auto. First off I have a Edge juice and EZ stack, AEM intake, 5" stack exhaust with no muffler. I plan on more fuel and air int he future but nothing 100% extreme. The truck is my Daily Driver.

I also have 9" lift and run 39" tires and have stock 3.73 gears. (Which will soon be 4.56 gear sets hopefully).

My auto work ok so far. I have seen on my edge the slip percentage in the 45% area. I want billet input and output shafts (possibly intermediate too), billet flexplate, DD pan, heavy duty V body and converter and all the rest of the typical bands, clutches, etc that a billet tranny gets. Probably gonna cost in the $5-6K range.

What do you guys think of HTS trannys? Worth the money? Marianne seems to know alot and is helpful. But theres lots of tranny companies out there.

Any tips to add or comments would be great. thanks alot.
Joe E.

Marianne and Dusty are great people to work with and they stand behind their product. I love my trans, it might be my favorite mod to my truck.

I love mine as well! Best money ever spent.
I was told a laminated flex plate is better than billet.

Definately well worth the money spent. After having this one, all future autos will be built by Dusty. Im 100% happy with my decision to go with them...

and by the way ANY full billet trans will not be cheap at all. you get what you pay for I can tell you first hand. you can have all the power in the world but if the transmission and the converter wont hold the power you have nothing is the way I look at it.

HTS seems to have great stuff. I've never heard any complaints from them at all.

By the way, welcome to DTR Joe! Good to see you over here from DTW.
