Modulator was new with the rebuild. Its been awhile since I have driven but I remember when its in 3(D) the shifts are real early. Specifically the 2-3 shift. Maybe its just the new clutches but I had to go manually shift which didn't bother me since its an offroad toy. But I do want it to be correct. The valve body was redone, as it had a shift kit in it(plate style). My trans guy did work to it, I dont know what but I do trust his work.
