Why does dodge keep putting such POS trannies in? I never hear of ford or chevs with such problems...
i even have the MHP TCM and that 5th anf 6th is a bag of shiet! Mine does the stupid shudder and it's rediculous, the other two hold but this doesn't, next time it may have to be a chev as I never hear of weak drivetrain.
I find it rediculous that it takes 6K to have a decent tranny?

i wouldnt...i mean the new duramax is nice and all, but the tranny dont hold up even when people are like allison this allison that.... when you put real power to the truck and change it from being a stock vehicle.... the transmission isnt anything special same with ford.... my girlfriend runs a 2008 king ranch 250 on 40s and tuned up and all and transmission doesnt hold it... and all three trucks are around equal now adays... the ford are capable of big power with them tuners and exhaust and intake; the chevy are capable of hold a lot of power too but once you get into trying to make serious power the cummins stomps the competition... plus it isnt as junked up underneath the hood

looking at your sig, id say the rebuild kit would handle your needs if you plan on just driving like a normal human being, and not racing or nothing to strenuous...
if you plan on being real rough, youd be better off getting the race tranny
i run the race tranny and there is no way the rebuild would have worked for me...

im not saying the kit wont hold some abuse, but by all means it isnt made for guys that like to race all the time or race from redlight to redlight and punch it every corner...

haha well in my OWN opinion i think youd be alright... i just know a few boys that are wide open every corner smoking tires and every redlight is a race to the next red light.... but hey its there truck i dont tell them what to do haha...
