VB's & Acc kits

Wanting, to help the trans so i get the most out of it, whether im using it as a daily driving or towing,..etc..whats considered to be the right choice and why?

Tugger Kit...
Sonnax CS kit
JW/BTS or FTVB(if found) valve body

Ive read alot into each but still not sure why some went with X and others with Y route. Considering from what i read, the 1 route takes it to modifying the pump which inturn, needs trans removed. The other kits/bodies can be installed with trans in truck. Im thinking people wouldve went the full monty route but mechanical limitations and or tools/time/space prohibited them...

I went with the Tugger Kit. I needed a complete rebuild, I discussed with the shop what I used the truck for and what I wanted in a transmission. After talking with them extensively, they recommended the Tugger Kit and triple disc TC…so that’s what I used. Very pleased.

I have the tugger kit, why ? Because that is what my guy who builds all my race transmission uses on his builds.

edit.... also has a P&D Converter, Red Eagle clutches, billet 300m drums, shafts and other custom parts and machine work that he does at his shop.

Right on fellas...2 totally different reasons due to "use" of vehicle..350, ur a hauler and pirate, you **** checker colors. Not to tow fulltime but if i had to tow a 5th wheel with weight to it(recreational purposes), , i dont want to be limited/skeptical...until then, i see a truck camper in the future...whatcha you guys think would be the one to get
