Trans Questions

Hey everyone ...first post (new guy)

Any way I have 2 PSD a 01 F350 CC 4x4 and a 99 F250 XC 4x4. My 01 shifts nice and hard. My 99 kind of slides into gear almost like a little slipping especially under power. I have changed oil and filter in both, no burn't oil. The 01 has 145k and the 99 has 130k. I drive the 99 about 1500m a month mostly highway. Is there anything I can do to make this shift better without just pullin it out and rebuilding... Torque converter??? additives???

Any ideas would be great....Thanks

Don't do additives of any kind. You can install a valve body on the trans without dropping the trans. Do a search on VB and you will find all the info you will need. I personally will be doing the full trans-go tugger shift kit here soon.

1-870-422-3673 for a BTS Valve body. Don't do the torque converter since you don't want an expensive one in front of a used trans.
