02F250 Trans problem

Hello Group:
After dumping tons on money into the truck that I had just purchased, (Turbo, 5" Flowmaster, Stage 2 injectors, Stage 2 intake, TM 6 position, Map Sensor, Fuel Pumps, 07 Harley Davidson Frill and lights) i was so happy and it was running great, until after 3 hours, it started to slip on me. Drove it straight back home (2 minutes away) and parked on street. It only works as I shift it into 1 and R also works for now. Any suggestions? Is it the Trani or the Torq converter? If I would need to change the Trani, would I be able to update it to a newer model?

You could upgrade to a BTS tranmission. They are the favored upgrade as far as trannys go.

I am pretty sure that it is a tranny issue.
Not able to upgrade to a newer model, but you will be able to update to a much stronger model. Call BTS click here.
He makes the best thing going for these trucks. If not him give John Woods a call. Click here

I know this sounds goofy, but I am jealous of you. Your tranny will be sooo much better than stock. Good luck.

Since you're in Kalifornika, I'd try John Woods first.

He's in Holtville, CA, west of Yuma on I-8.
