well my luck has been on the downside for the last month,,,,, 3weeks ago my rearend messed up and just got that fixed this past saturday, well i drove it today to katy to put some miles on it, and I went to pick up carlos (member on here) to go eat lunch, well i was at a stop sign and as soon as i took off it reved to 2krpm and something popped!! truck wouldnt go no where did know what was going on, so before i put it on park i shift it to 1st and it started rolling again? so i finally figured out that i only have 1st and 2nd gear, so here i am 40miles away from home with a broke tranny!
so i got on the freeway and cruised at 55mph 4200rpm all the way home! tranny temp only went up to 140F (good thing i have that big 40k cooler) and motor only at 190F...... dropped the truck off at home and talked to my tranny builder.... he said i might of done a little damage to my tranny the day my rear end went out aswell? he said he'll take care of it to drop it off tomorrow morning.....
so moral of the story, Ive had too much bad luck in the past month!!! dont know if it will be ready for SAR this weekend but im still going though, ill run the duramax if i have too! lol...
