It wasn't a Ford reman, It was "allegedly" remanned by a company out of Orlando called Consolidated. And all i can find out about them is bad
reviews. But yes, It should have still been a clean case.
I already talked to the credit card co to dispute the charges.

This got me to thinking about an earlier thread, that I was unclear about. Does Jody do something that would otherwise be done with the JWVB. When I got the chip, the form asked if I had any tranny mods, and I selected "no". So I was wondering if he was making it shift different to make up for a lack of an aftermarket VB. And thus, should I have the chip reburned?
I'll have to give Jody a call to confirm. My trans shifts a little hard before and after the JWVB. So maybe?

Chips and tuners raise the line pressure as does VBs and shift kits

Thanks again Kevin. I am also looking into a BTS.
I'm thinking of taking legal action on the shop that attempted to rebuild my last trans. After two unsuccessful attempts to rebuild mine, he told me that he bought a crate reman from a company out of Orlando. Well, it looks like he put in a spraypainted junkyard trans.
Thats what got me started on tracing the tag numbers. Now I'm hoping he did get a JY trans, and that reman shop didn't gut a HD unit and put in the stock weak parts.
Maybe I can get something out of the first shop, and get this trans rebuilt if infact all of the Ford HD parts are still intact.
Here a pic of the trans that raised an eyebrow about it just coming out of a reman shop. It looks like dirt in the casting holes....I would think that the case would have been hot tanked and super clean, not still dirty.

Here is a picture of my trans tag. Why is mine numbered different than gunnertoms?

Problem - Selected transmissions have an orange "PRIOR TO REPAIR" tag on the transmission fluid
pan. the orange tag refers to this TSB which includes specific inst to be followed prior to replacement and/or repair

Frank, Consolidated Rebuilders was at one time the rebuilder that rebuilt most or all of Fords rebuilt parts. I do not know if they are still working with Ford or not. Someone else on here may know. Fords rebuilt parts was packaged with label that stated " Consolidated Rebuilders a Ford Authorized rebuilder "

The one located in Sanford Fl. is supposed to be the company that did the trans.
I still think its a salvage trans.
Thanks for the info Bob, it gives me a glimmer of hope.
See ya in Texas

Frank,
I hope you did get the hd version. But it's still not adding up to me. If you look on Ed's site and compare the msrp between the 6u... and the one you posted.
Here was some pricing that was on your op.
Dealer Net Price is $2494.00 with a $1000.00 core deposit.
Suggested Retail is $3325.33.
This price is very competitive with other heavy duty units available in the market today
The suggest retail should be the msrp.
Edit: here are the prices from Ed's site:
6U2Z7V000HRM $3,395.54 $1,000.00 $3,055.98
F81Z7V000HBRM $2,482.21 $1,000.00 $2,233.98
