First I must say I love Auto's. Dont be chicken just be poor (FROM SPENDING ON UPGRADES) Good job Gizmo, I saw your truck in readers rigs somwhere I liked it love that blue color. I had trouble just changing ny oil the first time

I'm finally back on the forums... work has been hectic . So far, the transmission's been holding GREAT! No problems. (of course my comp box hasn't been on since the swap ) I'm getting the itch, but I know I'd better not until I upgrade the transmission. After playing with the line pressure and shift points, I love it!!! Mid January all the DTT stuff is going in... YAHOO!



Yesterday morning on my way to work, a u-joint decided to take a dump :{. But that's another post.

Kris, I just wanted to make sure you got my complement for your great job! That was a gutsy move. Well done. There was a thread titled “Might have found a fix for hard shifting,” but those guys probably missed the jab of humor. It’s hard to find humor in a transmission (or oil) related thread (that’s an understatement) but I find them educational and entertaining (I’m not stirring any pots here guys!). Anyway, since you’re probably not reading the manual transmission threads (not nearly as lively, thank you very much), here’s the quote.

Surprise, surprise. Wow, you guys did a good job on this thread. Oil and trannys "all-in-one. " A little friction modifier and va voom. Only a little heat rise. Guess that’s what temperature gauges are for. Good job. Well done. And I thought it was just us Auto guys. Commendations all around.



PS. Kris (Gizmo 007), I think you did the right thing. Good job.



PPS I love this site…

Again, Kris - GREAT JOB!
