Dad just ordered a RAM1500 with 5.7, 8speed, air ride he wants to sell his old truck. Maybe I should sell the SSS and take his? Dad truck is a 2001 F-250 7.3 Diesel with 180K miles -Tubronetics (spelling?) Ball Bering Turbo -Banks intercooler -Magnaflow Exhaust -Banks power elbow -DP 5 postion tuner -AEM? Cold air intake -Aftermarket Radio with Nav and XM -4" Lift -20" wheels with 35" tires -a older but working 8' Fisher Plow Recent Maintenance: -Injector O-rings done last summer 2015 -New trans with 3 year warranty installed last spring 2015 -New upgraded Alternator 2014 -New upgraded Starter spring 2015 -New Rear Leaf Springs 2013 -New Turbo O-rings and HIPO O-rings 2014 -New Water pump and hoses Fall 2015 Problems: -body rot under the bed (bed supports) and around the wheel wells. We put fender flairs and POR15 the rust on the wheel wells -some sort of noise from the front end, need to investigate My truck: 2004 Silverado SS AWD with 165K miles -just "fixed" rot on the rear fender wells and the rockers. the body work on the one side looks bad, other is great -front bumper is beat up -new trans back in 2014 (this time by a new builder with many upgrades and has been working great, knock on wood) -If i keep this one, dad said i can have his old touchscreen radio from the F250 Dad would be happy with 8K so I can sell my truck to give him 8K or just sell his truck and maybe get 8-10K

Thanks I am curious, would it be better to get one that had a fan? like this:

Thought I was gonna find a picture of my rusting 04...

I upgraded to a hydoboost unit a while ago and now the longer hard line has started to leak. Anyone know a park number?

So my (i think its called) tru-cool trans cooler sprung a leak. whats a good affordable cooler for our trucks? Size?

+1 for NJ! (central)

My gauges died. I found that if i play with the right red thing in the picture it works fine. As soon as i let go it dies again. What are these?

Hey guys, So i got my truck back! New trans by a new builder. Very happy I still need to do rear brakes (have just need to install) and front hubs. However, the exhaust leak has grown significantly since the trans has been removed and installed so many times. I need help finding a good gasket for the collectors I am almost positive the headers are the cheap OBX long tubes from ebay. It seems the gasket is the donut type. Looks like 3" Can anyone point at the right ones or know if some style is better? Also what is a good clamp for the slip together piece from the midsection to the muffler section?

Well the SSS is fixed. Going to pick her up later tonight hopefully. The trans builder used some choice and colorful words to describe the work that was done. Said there was a lot of old and used parts performabuilt reused instead of just replacing cheap 4 and 5 dollar parts. If this trans last 50K miles I will be so happy. The longest performabuilt was maybe 15K-20K? Still need to do front hubs, fix and exhaust leak, rear brakes, and fix some broken LED's in the cluster / heat controls

DO NOT GET A PERFOMABUILT

Hope things are calming down. We were supposed to get 30+" but got only 6" Post the pics whenever you get to it... I miss my truck

Woah. This is crazy. I just signed in to say the same thing. That is almost word for word what my new builder just said and I trust him a lot more (was highly recommended by my buddy who owns a shop. They send all GM trans to him) . Also the servo is way to stiff and that blew a cheap Chinese manufactured 2-4 band. He is changing the planetary, the input shaft, and he either said it had a z pack or he is going to install one along with total rebuild. Cell was breaking up. $2000 with having my buddy pull/install the trans he also said: "its weird. they used shitty parts and i am not surprised to see it blow. However, they used a good torque converter. Just odd they would sell this crap and then a good budget converter." I laughed and told him that i had a performabuilt converter fail and I installed a Circle D converter. he said "ha, no shit. it all makes sense now"

Sent the truck off yesterday. I will never recommend performabuilt to anyone.... Being built by a local builder. Can't afford FLT Friend is going to remove and install the rebuilt trans
