tranny accumulator boyd

has any on tried the accumulator body from BD diesel
it sounds like it should work like the transgo kit
think it sells for 350
it also said that you could ajust shift points by adding some shims
sounds pretty easy
what do you guys think
thanks

Personally, now that I've done my own, I'd never spend the dough for someone else to do it. For ~$70, you can do it yourself!! Mike wrote up a really good procedure on how to do it, so don't be intimidated. If you can follow a direction sheet (like putting a model car together), you can do this.

Here's the thread:

I am with Joe on this one, BUT if you insist on a VB the John Woods VB (sold by ITP Diesel) or BTS VB (sold by Brians Truck Shop) are $225 and the personal favorites on FTE. I am a HUGE fan of John Woods personally (as is Jody from DP Tuner)

I posted a link in that thread to where I got mine... So far, it's been the cheapest place to find 'em.

OPT (Oregon Performance Transmission) has the Tugger for $95, and the HD Kit for $65, plus a few bucks shipping. I have my receipt right here -- I paid $102.15 for the Tugger shipped to my door.
