That is exactly where we are. East of discount tire about 1/8 mile to industrial drive, then 1/4 mile down on the right.

My Yank lasted 3 months before it blew... Many calls were made and none returned....It took my trans with it too. I've had a couple other Yank converters and had no issues and responsive service from Mike. Anyone interested in a 800 dollar paper weight?

The TCC shouldn't have an effect on low speed driving... In a stock SS, it should only lock above 35mph or so. Was it dragging or something?

Well I also have a yank tt 3000 and mine came apart last tuesday, going down the highway at 70 with cruise set. Just like I put the truck in neutral, I am pulling it this week but the trans shop said looks like the stall came apart and fulled the pump up with metal and stopped pumping. I will let you know by monday.

Kurt i spoke to mike about this converter i was not aware of this until now we have the converter here and would like to know what you want to do with it. The clutch in the converter was fine the bearing in the converter failed that was the metal you had in the trans.This converter you bought was a pt3000 not a trailblazer converter please call me so we can get this converter back to you my number is 775-826-9955.

That was a bizarre reply. Either Dave didn't read Kurt's post very well, or...

I called Dave today about my converter. He said it was lost/ misplaced in the move. He says they are going to fix it and send it back. Not sure if it will find its way back in. Probably would have if the tracks here were still open. The last time it was in the truck was North vs South.

I agree, it is a step for Yank in the right direction....
