So my transmission drove perfectly fine I just wanted to put an upgraded torque converter in especially after driving a cuatomers' truck with a low stall converter. I know their not like for racing or anything but it's a work Truck with some mods to the motor nothing crazzy. So I went ahead and bought a low stall triple disk converter and I drove around the block fine and went to go on the freeway and got into fourth but lost it as I hit 75 (was not flooring by any means and had it in the stock tune) now it will not go past second gear. Once it did this the o/d off light started to flash and I decided to do a stall test.went to 1800 in a Second. Suppose to stall around 1200-1300. I know the converter is ****ed but I think it blew my trans. Any ideas?

2000 f250 7.3 powerstroke dp chip stage 1 camshaft and 180/100 injectors coming at some point but stock for now

 

Pull (or have pulled) the codes that were stored when your OD light started flashing. Without those codes, you are flying blind . You can't pull the codes stored with a cheap OBD scanner.

 

so this post is from last year.. any update on what happened? I was looking to upgrade my TQ with multi plate model so I was intrested to see what was up.

 

Best thi g you can to do to the 4r100 is adding a triple clutch TC. The OP probably had a defective one or he fudged the install?

 

 

Interesting report, thanks for the information.

 

When i was looking for a good triple disk TQ I ran across this on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/151544626616 by a place called Precision of New Hampshire. I went to there website and found a place close, hr away, that uses these guys for over 6 yrs they told me. The owner was telling me the returns from problem are real low.. like 1 in a 100 he would guess.

They are a bit more expensive than the other cheaper units and you can get the low stall unit as well..

seems like a good unit for the money.

 

Yo Freak..what tq you recommend? Im wanting to do the same surgery

 

I installed 4 Torco triple disc low stall TC's, 1 in my E40D and the others in 4r100 at work they have held up great to the abuse, if money isn't an issue a billet TD low stall TC from any of the known tranny builders would of been my first choice.
