Just got the truck back from the transmission shop. IDK what shift kit he installed but god damn the shifts are super firm. On hard acceleration there is a chirp from the rear tires. It wakes me up.

Shouldn't your tuner have firmed up your shifts?

Once I get her back from the shop that's doing the other work I'll have pictures for you. Didnt even have her for an hour. And yes RL it would have but it was shot. The bands were black and down to bare steel. The clutches were crap and the valvebody was toast as the gasket was blown. The planetarys were shredded.
