Gears help eliminate the extra demand put on the TC as it strains to pull my truck from a dead stop, especially with a load of wood.

Sorry for the "post jack" Wermbang.

what shift kit did you get?

I believe my problem is the solenoids or the valve body.

You know, I don't remember if its the sonex kit or ? I don't know if you'd believe this but most kits are made by one or two manufactuers and distributed through various companies. All work the same way as far as changing the third gear shift spring and removing or changing various pressure restictions in the valve body, allowing for harder shifting. You should get one that gives you options as far as shift firmness.

Well just got the call, my transmission is done, and the truck is ready to be picked up.

I got a new pan, new tranny mount, HD coolor, and HD clutches. I will list the actual names once I get the receipt
