My new trans
 

First and foremost, A HUGE THANKS to Justin, Greg, Rob, and Eric for making this come together.

It's still just a 5r44e but it has all new internal parts as well as a shift kit.

I'll get installed pictures soon. The trans pan is powdercoated so it's pretty sweet.

nice! looks good.

so how does it drive?

What happened to the old trans?

It leaps and bounds over what I had. The shifts are quick and firm but not overly harsh. It's exactly what I wanted.

Well the trans that was in my truck was one I got out of a junkyard for the 4x4 swap. It supposedly had 88k miles on it but acted like it had 188k on it. It was leaking in a few spots and shifted like crap. 1-2 shift wasn't a shift, more of a slide..... But the trans that I had rebuilt was actually my old 2wd one that I got a 4x4 extension housing for and Justin got a 4x4 output shaft for.

looking good. i want to see a video of how it shifts onboard.

So how was the drive home?

Videos are uploaded. :) Check the first post

what shift kit did you get?

i have a shift kit in mine and it shifts so hard

I have heard that often times with shift kits, a lot of people want a tuner to reduce shift pressures on some shifts.

yay for brain surgury!

I love the firm shifts. Its not bad for daily driving at all.

who's shift kit did they put in it?

Transgo if I remember correct. It's actually called a shift correction kit.
