Hi gonzo 6.2,
Well the history is the Maggie was put on @5k miles and the OE trans made it to 44k or so before a 1st gear rear thrust bearing went out. She has almost 90k now.

Then I had a local trans shop make two attempts with long terms between with a couple of pulls and installs and the OE converter went out in the mix replaced with a stock-ish stall Circle-D.
Inside these two attempts I sent the Circle-D in for a cut & clean.

Then another cut and clean when I changed to Transbuilderguy for the 4.5 build. And again after the loose bolts.

So yeh... she had her scars. The one that came back was a different unit. That was between TBG and Circle-D.

I do not want to beat on my trans builder guy for the bolt mishap. The trans is fantastic and I will not hesitate to use him again or recommend him.

I beat on the truck every time I get in it. I use and abuse her but compared to what you mean by hard I don't know.
