E40D still holding out

[wanderer]

I was just thinking this morning, and realized that it has been a year since I installed the baby Swamps in my truck. Most everyone told me that the transmission would go out on me in a short amount of time. I drive the truck hard every day, and it carries an oversize load, every day. I scaled it this summer at 10,500 lbs. 1996 F250, ext cab, 4wd (auto hubs that work great).

No mods to your tranny yet?

Other than a rebuild at 100,000 miles about 5 yrs ago, no mods.

Have you ever dyno'd? Be interested to know what kind of abuse the stocker can take HP wise.

No dyno. I had to put the truck thru emissions for the first time this past month. Swamps told me to pull the chip, and it would be fine. He was right. I pulled the cat a long time ago, and the emissions guy put a mirror under my truck, and then asked me if the truck was supposed to have a cat. I kind of smiled and told him that it was a diesel, no cat.
