dropped it off at the stealership this morning. now we wait.

05Level2 05-28-2010 03:50 PM

This is all under warranty work isnt it?

Tys 4x4 FTW 05-28-2010 06:33 PM

Yep should be. They're trying to fly it under the radar so we'll see. Its not set in stone, but they'll most likely be able to fic it. If not, I'll take it to a trans shop, parents will pay and I have to make payments to them. Trying to avoid that one. I hate owing my parents. What I do know is I miss my truck :( parts are coming in for it and I have nothing to do with them.

05Level2 06-02-2010 09:02 AM

Have you heard back from them yet?

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-03-2010 08:35 PM

sorry haven't been on much to give an update. been working 10+ hour days. then going home and sleeping. lol

finally heard back today. it IS being covered under warranty FOR SURE. it will be done monday :) then after this next paycheck it alone will be enough to go regear. woot!

korey89 06-03-2010 09:07 PM

You lucky little bastard

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-03-2010 09:09 PM

telll me about it man. my dads friend knowing the owner of the dealership played a huge part in it im thinking. but he wouldn't say. lol

either way, i didn't spend a single dime even though it was my own stupidity (not regearing) that fvcked the trans. haha WIN

05Level2 06-03-2010 10:03 PM

I was wondering if they told you what it was yet?

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-03-2010 10:29 PM

no clue. im not even sure if it was hard parts or soft parts. i just know they're fixing it. im sure i'll find out when i pick it up or talk to my dads buddy.

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-09-2010 06:55 AM

so after a few letdowns, it'll finally be done today. they were waiting on a few parts to get in i believe. they got them yesterday, it'll be done midday today. i work 7AM - 6PM so my parents are gonna pick it up for me and bring it to my work and swap out cars. can't wait!! i've got a few goodies to install tonight haha

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-10-2010 12:38 AM

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-10-2010 12:49 AM

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-10-2010 06:30 AM

4.88s

and yeah i don't think you'd have a problem with a trans hahaha

05Level2 06-10-2010 08:25 AM

So what was wrong with it? Pullin trannys on rangers isnt hard at all, i just hope i never have to on my 05 at least for a few hundred thousand lol!

You should buy Donny's 8.8, you'll save a decent amount of money that way

05Level2 06-14-2010 10:16 AM

What was wrong with the tranny

Tys 4x4 FTW 06-14-2010 12:56 PM

not exactly sure. worn out soft parts is all i know.

05Level2 06-14-2010 02:40 PM

They told you worn out soft parts? I would have asked to see them, parts dont just get worn out and soft on a 3 year old transmission for no reason.
