    Well took my truck to the tranny shop today because it was really feeling sloppy, 2nd gear band is hooped so I am looking to rebuild. Can someone suggest the best parts and upgrades for it. Also would like recommendations on a converter for it.

    Get Tonys converter! You will be very happy with the results. You will have to contact him and let him know what mods you plan on if any. JTSVP

    Your baby is good minus the tranny issue, I haven't done anything with it yet, just waiting for all the parts to get here. I have a tranny guy that is going to do the build on it for me. It is still driveable just not as tight as it should be.

    That is good to hear. I still miss it; actually watched the video the other day when it was being loaded on the transport truck.

    It is an awesome truck, I lucked out when I got it. Only 42,000 miles on it so far.
