    4r70w won't shift into third/od.

    As much as I dislike them. I want to do a 1 inch body lift to create some extra room for my v8 swap. But all I can find are 2 and 3 inch lifts. Can I cut down a 2" lift to one? Or will there be problems?

    driveshaft mod versus advance adapter?

    so the v8 is creeping closer and I need to know. Do you NEED the AA adapter? Or can the borg warner hook straight to a 4r70w? I think it could be cheaper to have the shafts lengthened/shortened that to buy the 500$ Frikin adapter. Ps: Woo hoo 800 posts!
