04blacksss Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 ok, i got my transgo hd shift kit in the mail 2 days ago and it lookes harder than i thought to install. Am i perinoid or should i have some one professionally install it. how much will that run me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detjoe Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) yes, let someone who knows how put it in. While it can be done there are a bunch small things...plus it helps to have the trans out...have you thought about doing TC at the same time???

detjoe Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 you dont have to pull it, you are right. but how would you want to install some bb's? upsidedown or using gravity? same with servo', they might be easier to install in the truck casue you can pry on the truck to compress them. you are replacing the stock cooler so that part of the trans is not changed then tuning to change the stuff you cant see:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04blacksss Posted November 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 welll shit looks like my trans is gettin pulled then.. thanks for the help.. im just goin to have it done by a pro "toy shop" thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detjoe Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 its the best way, then if it is not in right (which more than one have been) you have someone who you can take it too. it's really hard to get some pleasure from kicking your self:) Dont slip on these mods that can drop some time and make the truck a new beast with out adding to the engine, a simple Dacco($200+install) stall put in when you add the shift kit can add .3-.4 seconds to your ET! these were my first mods you will say out loud (even when driving by yourself) "this is how the truck should have come from the factory!"

rivierakid55 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 i dont think pulling its the best option if he isnt gonig to do a converter. adds a lot of unneed time to the install. if your gonna do a converter then yes pull it or have a shop pull the trans otherwise leave it in and do it in the truck.

faceliftedss Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 i agree i did mine with the tranny still in and besides the 2 day crick in my neck it was a lot better than paying 400+ for a tranny shop to do it. also the servos are cake, def do those yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rivierakid55 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 you wouldnt. no transmission shop would ever do it that way for a shift kit/servos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
