Hey all,
Been awhile since I needed some help but I finally had to break down and replace the 4r55e tranny in my XLT. I have a few questions regarding this and I hope someone can help!
1.) Anyone heard of Phoenix Remanufactured Transmissions and if so, what about them good, bad, or really ugly? I ordered the tranny and it should be ready by Friday. Got it for $751. Just need to remove old one and exchange with the new one.
2.) I've read the Haynes many times but as most know, the articles are generic for many years of a particular vehicle. My problem is I dont have access to a lift and I dont have a tranny jack. Could some please tell me the easiest way to remove the transmission from my truck with maybe, hopefully step by step instructions or photos and let me know what I should do to safeguard the next transmission?
3.) What is the best way to flush the trans lines before I put this other tranny in since I wont be able to drive it to flush it or should I just wait until the new tranny is in and take it somewhere to get it flushed?
