This is very interesting to say the least.

my pea brain assumed the opposite, more check balls for the tranny that had more gears, totally wrong. I'd just throw myself on the mercy of that cool ebayer and see what he can do for you. Maybe offer him some recompense.

Do or will you have two grey Sp's? Because if you want to use the 545 as a 65rfe, I think you will need the white one. This is some ****, lol.

Yes, i’m gonna have 2 grey SPs. And this **** is WILD.

When you finally get the 65rfe VB, that extra SP might he handy some day. It is useless with that current new VB.

I agree. This explains the P0845 code the truck has.

sonax makes a universal rfe valve body, just dandy. At this point info for the next guy.

The convenience of stocking one SKU number for various applications saves time, money and interchangeability confusion

LOL, tell me about it.

Sounds good. When i take out the vb whenever the new set of vb hex bolts come in i’ll be able to get the old one back up to brand new again.

Oh that sucks....

Aside from getting my neighbors mail down the street and vice versa for years no...

I’ve gotten my neighbors mail since i moved out to this house. We have the same street number, but different streets, she’s on the street behind me, and i have to bring her her mail pretty much every day and despite how much we call it never changes. Sigh.

That's exactly what happens here! The neighbors house is the same number but different road and their name starts with the same 2 letters. So we end up trading packages and mail at least a few times a month[emoji23]

USPS is up at xmas level package delivery without the extra help the get at xmas. Just the meds alone from pharmacies are killing them. Many offices have drivers out to 10pm everyday. I have an idea, let's make them responsible for the election results, lol.

Very very late night post - I just checked over the valve body that i took out of the truck and there’s no cylinder scratching, no broken screws or anything. It looks perfect.
