Duramax looks killer with the new wheels.

 

I love black wheel but not the two toned stuff. All black or nothing. So Im digging the new ones.
And I cant stand those obnoxious aftermarket grills. So I'm loving the clean GMC front.

All in all, great looking truck.

 

Only ran it for a day. Did not beat on it either. I have the tru boost in there that does not work at all and is a crappy setup. Once I have a minute I will get that manual boost controller and dial it down to about 12lbs.

 

I finally got the truck all dialed in and was running good. Not 2 miles later... Less than few hundred miles on this trans

 

That doesn't look good...

 

Dumped all the fluid in less that 400 ft.

 

What would most likely cause a front main blowing like this? Maybe the front pump went out?

 

The problem is trans pressure is pushing seal out. I've seen it a lot. You have to remove front pump drill out the return behind the seal. I drill my 4l80 is big as the pump had room for.

 

You can use old seal to judge how big hole can be. And I oval the hole behind seal to get most flow.

 

Got the trans out today. Torque converter wont slide out. Used some force and wouldnt come out. Trans was built by jakes performance.
