It wasnt anything in the valve body. Truck shifts into 2nd great but will not go past that. I noticed right away when it shifts into 2nd the RPMs are still higher than before- around 1800.

The overdrive light was blinking so I know I'll have to get the code read.

Just want some more input before I have to take it to the shop....

 

did you leave an "f" out of the title?

 

HAHAHA, LOL

Yeah, I just noticed. It has been a hell of a day and I am still bummed out. Truck is on my mind...

I took it to the shop. Oh well, I know it is the stock tranny and it did feel like it was getting weak. I guess the tighter springs were enough to break it. I am one sad man...

 

oh, it actually broke? what happened to it?

 

Guys hooked the scanner and it did not dump a code. They went through testing the VSS and Solenoids, and everything checked out. They are going to check into it some more and let me know. I'll keep you guys informed.

 

I stopped by to check on my baby today, and they showed my two broken clutch plates. They also told me there were some stuck/broken vlaves. This repair is gonna cost me around 1k. Couldnt have some at a worst time...

 

$837.59 total cost of rebuild and new tc.
They put the sonnax kit in and with the other 2 springs they put in. Man it shifts better then my father in laws brand new truck. And that vibration that I thought was the ujoints again is GONE. It runs GREAT. thanks to all for putting up with me while I got through this.

 

Broken clutch plates? Stuck and broken valves? What was the cause of all that?

 

Yes Tell Us ... What Causes Those Things To Happen.
Don't Want It To Happen To Me.

Have You Been Rough On The Truck?

 

nope. I have only had it for 6 months and i drive like a grandpa. Always keep it under 2k rpm even when accelerating. But since I first got it the tranny felt a little funny and I was finally convinced to put in the sonnax kit to get rid of the problem. It did for 2 days, and then all hell broke loose. I think the tranny was on its way out and the tighter springs were just enough to finish the job.
