    Any good 4R100 builders in the Cleveland area?

    my truck is stock. the rust is the reason i am not going to throw a ton of money at a trans. i do want to upgrade the **** Ford TC that's in there though. i guess i'll look around locally for a good trans shop. i have some bills i want to pay down before i get a newer truck. i have about...

    yeah, i know BTS is the best, but my truck is not worth a $4k+ transmission. i just need the trans freshened up so i can get a couple more years out of it. by then i'll be in a position to get a newer/cleaner truck.

    I'm looking to have my trans gone through and have a shift kit and good TC installed. Anybody know a good trans shop around NE OH?

    sloppy shift from 1st-2nd

    are you sure it's not the TC engaging? on my '99 if i jump on it, it will shift into 2nd and engage the TC...feels like a mushy shift. then 3rd and 4th are firmer.

    Nick has offered me use of a programmer but i have resisted because i am afraid i'll fry my tranny. the 7.3 makes enough power for me stock (remember my other truck is an NA 6.9) but i know if i put a programmer on it i'll catch the bug and then start breaking stuff. right now i'm in get-out-of...

    just a few new truck questions

    nice lookin truck. those are the wheels i want on my SD i have not figured out anything about my fuel mileage. i find that if i drive so that the rpm stays below 2000 and i never hear the turbo, i can get 13 or 14 mpg out of it. but i use the truck to tow my enclosed trailer a lot so i can...

    if you do any towing you're better off, trust me. it does sound cool during accelleration but running 70 in OD pulling my loaded trailer or my 30' TT, hoo nelly it makes your ears ring after a while. the early '99 like i have is the worst for this from what i understand. improvements were...

    what would you charge per mile?

    i still need to talk to the customer about exactly what she wants shipped but everything in her house is valuable. i was given a ballpark figure of $10k. but like i say i haven't gotten an itemized list yet. i need to find out if i am responsible for insuring her stuff or if she can get a rider...
