Been there before, my parents property turns to slime at the slightest hint of rain. Getting stuck in the gate is no fun.

That's funny, I see Duramaxs, PowerStrokes and Fords with Cummins in them running built 47 and 48 Dodge autos in tractor pulls and dyno/drag trucks.
Never see a Dodge with a E4OD, 4100 or 4110.
You have to ask yourself why someone would go to all of the trouble and expense to swap a transmission into "brand-X" if it is an inferior product. The tranny builders for drag racing and tractor pulls must know something the BSers don't.

I know you'rebut this is a persistant error.

I have 2 E4ODs I have had no problems with in the fairly short time I've owned them. However because of their "terrible reputation" I'm afraid to use them hard.

The BS flows both ways.

Looks like he needs some better tires on that truck! I'd love to go play in a muddy field like that
