Sounds to me more like the horns of a dilemma

 

I took Rods advice and found some rice then some detroit muscle! Well my friends Im back on 5 all the time now I have to say horsepower is a definate luxury! Anyways Im on 5 and loving it!

 

Congrats on finding the cure for your ailment. Glad it was temporary.

 

I actully think I am more concerned that I will have to buy ANOTHER transmission in the near future.

 

When it comes time for a new tranni you could consider becoming a real driver and converting to a six speed ;D

 

I was actully concidering what is involved in a standard conversion. It seems like I would have less troubles and more fun!

 

Personally, if you want to race, an auto in a truck is the way to go. With a stick you lose boost on every shift and it takes up a lot of time to shift.

 

Did a nice smoke show today Im really happy got my Brand New Yokohamas spinning and pouring some nice smoke! I do have to take it easy on this tranny its starting to get weaker and weaker! Its sort of just sliding into gear now not really shifting anymore. Anyone got any easy fixes for the time being.

 

Up the line pressure a bit. ???

 

BB thats out of my league if you know of a tech faq or something I can read to do it then maybe. I'm no tranny guy and don't claim to be I have no idea what goes on in there.

 

BigBlue, you are correct, but I still prefer my standard over a slushbox. Specially downhill with a load.<br>BTW guys, today for the first time I had my truck really loaded. There was very little space left between the rubber 'bumpers' on the frame and the rear axle. The CTD hardly noticed it! Had to climb quite a few steep hills and the only time I knew I had a load was in fith gear, uphill and trying to accerate from 40 mph. The ride was considerably improved. Otherwise I could pass traffic on the hills as tho I was on the flat. Love this truck!!!!!!!

 

Standards are more fun and are better for towing. But for all out racing, you can't beat an auto for a truck.
