Are they -6 AN fittings? If so can you point me where to get them? Thanks, Derrick

Hello all, well John Wood is currently building my transmission and while I wait I am trying to figure out the cooler line situation. He said he is including a 6.0 tranny cooler to replace my stock 7.3 one. The only issue I am running into is I broke one of the lines going into the transmission...

I have looked around at other threads but there really isn't a whole lot of help. Everyone says to get an already built tranny. I think I need more then a rebuild kit, with 198,000 miles shouldn't I be looking more for a master kit that would include sprag clutches, 2nd band, new drums, and...

Well the time is getting closer and closer, I'm about to take my truck into school and rebuild the tranny. I am gonna get a new torque converter and a rebuild kit but I need to know if there is anything else I should order. I was thinking about getting a new valve body and a 6.0 cooler, as far...

Check your starter and starter relay. If you don't hear anything when you turn the key to start then I'd be willing to bet the relay is bad.

You may not get any play in the ujoints when you check if there is a load on the driveline. We are taught in school to roll the vehicle into the shop without touching the brakes and leave it in neutral. Block the wheels then use a dial indicator to check play. In the semi world anything with...

I've looked at them a little. I'm a broke college student and paying $4000 for a tranny isn't very feasible right now. I looked at their rebuild kit which I think is $500 so now I need to find a place to install it. How bad are these transmissions to rebuild? I know there are probably a few...

Ah very nice. Being close do you recommend any tranny shops close to us? Everyone says to avoid anyone here in Laramie and apparently Cheyenne isn't much better. My stock 4r100 blew up a few weeks ago and I need to get it rebuilt.

Hello guys, I'm Derrick. I'm from Iowa but I am currently living in Laramie, WY for diesel school. I drive a 2001 Platinum Edition 7.3 that has, TS 6 position switch w/ Beans custom tunes, Stage 1 160HP SS Injectors, Custom intake, 4" Down|5" Straight|6" MBRP tip. The old owner of my truck...

Mine doesn't currently work either. I pulled it apart and noticed 2 of the 7 resistors laying in the case so I tried to solder them back on. Not as easy as most people say it is. I was using small rosin core solder and a small pencil soldering iron. The resistors and spaces are very small and it...
