The Real Deal From FLT Look Inside
I would like to show you what makes FLT one of the best on the market. We put more in our transmissions then most do and spend money were others save it for themselves. There is no cutting corners when it comes to our customers. You deserve it and it is that simple.
1. All transmissions come Dyno tested. Here is the real world photo of the machine we use. This insures us that when you get them they work. No excuses. 100% satisfaction guarantee.
2. All units come complete as a bolt in application. These units are shipped with a bell and tail. As you can see in this photo they are literally new. All you need to do is install them. No BS for the installer to do other than put it in. We feel you pay for 100% of a transmission and that is exactly what we give you.
3. No need to swap tail housings and have to put a new bushing and seals in it. It's ready to go and already installed. Some companies do not supply you with this because it only cost them more money. We feel that all new transmissions require it and you as the customer deserve it.
4. All units come with the correct bell housing installed. Not making the installer do it. These bolts that hold this bell on can be very difficult to get out and often strip out. Once again giving you 100% of the transmission and not worried about saving money for ourselves on parts.
5. All units come with the proper cooler fittings. As you can see they are new. Old fittings can leak and cause your new trans to fail due to lack of oil. Once again giving the installer 100% of the transmission.
6. All units come with the proper linkage shafts in them. I get calls all the time from guy's that buy rebuilt units with the wrong ones installed. Their shifters do not line up properly or will not work at all.
7. All units come with valve bodies that have been fully disassemble and checked for proper tolerances. It's the only way to do it in my opinion. These valve bodies come with the trans go hd-2 kit installed. Not a low budget in house kit that costs a couple dollars. Or even just a used separator plate that has been drilled to make the trans shift hard. We use new separator plates in all of our units with the installation of this kit. I have seen our competition reuse these and for the price of the plate they are cutting corners. We spend money on our units and give it right back to you.
8. All units come with new solenoids and internal harnesses installed on the valve body. Old electronics could be the reason why the last trans failed. We like to eliminate the chance of failure. Most companies will reuse these to save money , not us! Once again giving you more for your money.
9. All units come with new clutches and bands. Not just what came out of the core that we built for you. Most companies reuse these.
10. All transmissions come with newly refreshed pumps. Surfaced machined with new internal components and new oversize pressure regulator valves. We do this to eliminate all cross leaks greatly reducing transmission failures.
11. All units come with new upgraded FLT beast sun shells. This is not a normal beast shell in our level 4 and 5 builds. It comes with a bearing and sleeve for added quality/strength.
12. All units come with new wide bushing were available. This gives your transmission added strength and support. This picture here is of the rear sun gear and the company that makes the beast shell recommends that this bushing be installed. Most every company that I have seen does not spend money here. I feel that it is there to add support and with out it other components might suffer. Only makes sence to me to do so when building a quality product. We do not cut corners.
There are many more things that we do. Take a look at our build sheets and compare them to the competition when purchasing a unit. There is a lot of marketing scams out there that make things look better then they really are. At FLT we fully go through your unit and do not cut corners in order to save us money. I personally guarantee it. Look at it like food. Why have peanut butter and jelly when you can have prime rib.

Here are a couple video clips I put together for you guy's to see our Dyno in action. This trans is one of our level 5 4l60E transmissions. With the use of this machine it allows us to give you the quality you deserve. It really is a quality control/research and development tool that we use to insure that when you get your transmission it works. These are pulls at different amounts of pressure.
The first one is at a 125psi.
This is a pull at 150psi.
This is a pull at 185psi.
This pull is at max pressure.

Vince, I'll tell you what. I've never done business with you, but I am continually impressed with your professionalism, customer service, and participation in the community. Your product speaks for itself, but it's everything else that you do that makes you and your shop A+ material. Keep up the good work!

Chuck builds the 6 speed units here at FLT. I have to tell you he is one of the best builders I've ever seen screw one together. He is very picky with these units and that is just how we do things here. The prices for these units are listed on our web page. I would require you to send us the core that you plan on using in order to build it. We are totally out of these cores currently. Vince
