A good one. The adjustable is for shift points but I've never got one to work. You'll probably have to get one for the truck it came out of.
I know you have tried just about everything except that you say you have to really put your foot in it to get it to kick down, right? I'm thinking your kickdown rod is binding somewere, not returning all the way, or the set screw is way back to far to kick it in right.
