Anyone have line pressure readings on a 48re after transgo shiftkit installation? Thanks in advance.

 

No one checks their pressures after installing a shift kit????

 

I'll give it a whirl, but I have never just installed a transgo kit without doing other mods to the VB that aren't in the instructions.

Here is a close to accurate 48re:
Idle, in gear - 80-90psi

Cruising, TC locked - 130-160psi (depending on how much throttle is being applied)

WOT - 180-200psi

Pressure should come up smoothly, but quickly with throttle. At around 120-130psi, shifts to 2nd gear. Same for 3rd. If and when the TC locks in 3rd you'll see 150ish. OD is around 120-130, then you get TC lock up in OD, and see 130-160psi.

Not exact by any means, but it may be helpfull to ya. These numbers may be 10-20psi higher than a normal VB with just a shift kit. Also these are on built tranny's, whitch tend to have better pressure, too.

 

Thanks for the great info, but of course it begs the question...What are those other mods that aren't in the instructions??????

 

Thanks JFLORY , exactly what I needed

 

extra stuff like servos and billet levers and stuff like that and an aftermarket tc

 

Extra stuff to include:
Billet parts from http://www.transmissioncenter.net/dodge.htm
#3SC - Intermediate Servo Cover or #3S2 if you don't mind the extra cost
#4BA - 2nd gear band anchor
#4BS - Band Strut
A billet second gear band apply lever like #4LG. Not sure if the levers they list are the correct ones for your application.

 

there is one deeper down th epage i believe for the 48re the lever has to be put in with the trans out! everything else is a cake walk

 

Yes, the second gear apply band lever can only be replaced by removing the tranny.
