    Im not sure about the balls in that tranny, never really tore one that far down except when i did my sonnex which was easy, this might help. if you look at the body you will see either little springs which would have the balls in that area, or check and see if any of the passages have a little...

    Hesitation / Surge

    Codes Have you checked for codes, I would make it a point to check codes first, I just found it easier to do that, makes it so much easier to figure out problems..if there registered

    Install up date// OK I got it installed, the guy i got it from got himself one of the banks kits, the kit does not provide a banks turbo so I do expect some performance or fuel milage benefit from it with the stock turbo..will have to road test later today or tomorrow, wanting to put it on the...

    Need Tranny Help

    You mentioned that you only went to the store, that might not be enough driving for a good tranny fluid check, the tranny fluid will show low when the tranny is still cold, the book suggests driving 15 miles then checking, that way the tranny is warm and the fluid has exspanded to the fullest...

    Dual HP pressure hoses?

    My thought I dont' believe the dual hoses would do anything more then a single hose.. they are just there to help equal pressure faster, mainly on start up and Idle.. I installed one and did notice that the engine sounded better on idle, and low Rpm...for the amount of oil and the pressure...

    Engine Sound Question

    Well I do plan on doing the crackle mods,soon. But I really think it was the bearing going bad, since i did have a very slight weep hole leak for the past 2 months, and since the I did the water pump and do have a sshpx line installed the engine is really quiet, sounds really good, turbo nice...

    idle speed increase?

    Im not sure about are trucks, but in the trucking industry they found out that long periods of idle, like when a driver is keeping warm at night sleeping in his truck, the low idle would cause the oil to gather acids from the low rpm that woulds eat up main bearings, thats why the newer semi...

    Installed Sonnex got question

    Dzl. I do think your right, I have read some where that you can custom tune the shift pressures, it may cause you to change your shift speed by increasing the time it takes to shift to the next gear, (more wind up-later shift and to a point could be harder on tranny on the extreme side) I was...
