If my locally built 60 blows, ill be placing an order to a name brand builder. The reason I did not this time is because my goal of 500 wheel might not need a 4K transmission, let alone a 5K one. Some of the guys making some serious jams ( 700 wheel ) seem like more of your market for trucks.

Good luck, and ps - when I called your customer serivce was great.

Looks like you got some good stuff there. Out of curiousity, what tolerance does Performabuilt use for 3-4 clutch pack?
