Well here she is... 2005 2500 CTD quad cab, 8ft bed(friggin boat) 140xxx on the ticker... white with linexed rockers. 5" turbo back exhaust, ice box CAI, 3 gauge A pillar (EGTs, boost, tranny temp), sunroof, big ass Texas style bumpers, Cooper STT tires, leveling kit, fold flat floors and still not sure if it a built tranny. I added a pic of the tranny, it looks like a deep pan. I got the number to the tranny shop that did the work, gonna call them tomorrow.

Thanks for the info... and mods are to come!

I'll call the tranny shop and find out what all has been done. I know it doesn't shift like a normal trans (not in a bad way)

If it shifts hard that is a good sign that it has a better TQ converter. My Gorend tripple disc throws ya back on each shift. Just make sure your trans can handle it. I went with billet internals , input and output shafts and a few allison parts in mine. You have a fine truck. It needs a good trans and that is the only flaw in a CTD.

Well your right about it throwing me in my seat...its pretty amazing! I'll see what the tranny shop has to say and go from there. If they only put a few things in it then I'll have it gone threw...

And you were right...I dont even miss my Hemi lol
