    48re + superior trans parts 2nd to 3rd issue

    I see this one has been hashed to death but I'm not getting concrete help. For those of you who have superior trans stuff. I had a trans shop install the shift kit and both low rev and 2nd gear kits. After that I had no 2nd gear, the shop said it was because the band was down to the rivets...

    6.7 decompression on shutdown

    6.7 guys, Do the newer model 6.7's decompression on shutdown? Guy in a 14 or 15 pulled into the hardware store next to me, when he shut it down it sounded like an old farm tractor instead of the cummins abrupt hault. Like you would imagine it sounded like if all the valves were held open. Thanks.

    Interior lights, anyone have a list?

    My buddy has an 89 and needs to do some light bulb replacement. Can't find any listing of what it takes, most of the bulbs are too old and smudged to read. Would love to do all LED to the truck and maybe some upgraded headlights. Thanks guys.

    Torque management. Myth, mystery or fact.

    So, after TONS of posts, still not 100% clear on the torque management and what goes on. Boiled down this is my take. Stock: Trans has the engine reduce fuel between shifts based on various inputs such as speed, throttle position etc. Saves the transmission from plowing through shifts, great...
