  1. My transmission guy has a rebuilt 465LE AWD transmission for sale he has gone through it and replaced the clutch packs and installed a new Kevlar band. He is asking 1600.00 PM me for any more details.
  2. Please give us some more info and some pictures would be great.
  3. Thanks for the info I will get a hold of Black Bear. Ss454327 you did get lucky there is nothing worse than looking up at your transmission to see a chunk of aluminum missing.
  4. If you can not get in there my buddy does transmissions on the side. He lives in Coopertown off highway 24 exit 24. PM me if you can’t get in McMahan’s
  5. Well it is back together and runs great. I only ended up paying 165.00 for the case. Once inside we found the band was burned so a new Kevlar band went in. We also found that the 2cnd accumulator (plastic) piston was cracked after the spring upgrade so I went to the big shaft housing and piston and reinstalled the same springs. The clutches all looked good after 74,000 miles I can still read the numbers on them. This was a very easy project with help from a great friend who does transmissions on the side. Now I have to decide where or who to get my PCM tuned from. Right now I have a tune from Brian (PCMforless) Any suggestions?
  6. I read yours today and thought wow he got lucky.
  7. Friday I installed a new servo in my transmission. All went well and the truck shifted great until the next day. As I was going down the road a heard a loud noise (kind of like a wrench or a servo hitting a heat shield). When I looked in the rearview mirror I saw the smoke so I pulled into a drive way and checked it out. I got out of the truck and crawled under to see what happened. Well to my surprise there was the new servo against the heat shield and my case was cracked and missing a chunk from the lower opening to the upper opening. So the moral to this story is. Make damn sure you have the snap ring installed correctly. It may look like it is in, but be 100% sure it is. This could be a costly mistake I still can’t believe the new case is only going to cost me $200.00. And my buddy is a transmission guy so it should be a SNAP to fix.
  8. Ok That is what i want for X-mas!
  9. My frontend sounds like a school bus it is so loud. I better take it in after your story.
