You're getting a full rebuild with a new case for $800? That sounds like a steal.
not bad
Yes, my cousin is employed by them and building a class 10 Baja race car.
I just need to come up with the 800, and make damn sure my ecm to the trans is perfect and get a new cooler and flush the lines.
sounds like beers on sunday to me...
It will probably be in a month, I don't have the spare cash right now.
By then it will be wheeling, then beers..
At $800, you're wishing you had contacted him when your first transmission crapped out, right? I know I'd kick myself in the head about it too.
can't beat that, you work at a dealer right? So wiring diagrams are available to you? If not I have a shop key account and will pull them up for you and send them.
Is there a way to have him bench test it before you install it? At this point I'm ready to say no one is above reproach. You need to know it's done and legit before it goes back in the truck.
Don't think so, maybe I can bring the truck on a weekend and install it.
Yes for sure....
Yes I do, I have the Gm manuals at a click.
Ok, so new build in progress. What's the update on the ECM / tune?
Ecm and tune should be fine, I talked to team208 about the tune he said 2000-2007 was the same tune. Mine is setup as a 02 which the new trans will be as well.
What I need to do is ohm the harness and make sure that is not damaged.
August 28th this truck is towing a 16 foot aluminum boat 2.5 hours away.
It will make this trip.
Sorry to be vague, we're spreading my dad's ashes and for the passed 25 years the truck towed the boat 98% of the time. His last trip up fishing will be the same way.
