are you getting the tranny rebuilt or buying a new one?
I've got Tan327's used FLT level 4. He claimed a handfull of miles and track passes...it had only been in his truck for about 3 months. I hope it holds up to be as flawless in operation as he stated it was

if anything else, take it to a trans shop there locally and have it flushed. They will normally do it for fairly cheap, saves you down time, and shipping cost, risk etc etc.... Just another option.

I'm sure that would void the warranty which still has a year and a half left on it.

$225 to have it cut and cleaned by Yank

EDIT: They said it's a 2 day turn-around though!
