    Anyone have experience with installing a tranny rebuild kit?

    As I PMed in March, I'd be interested in the bore kit, I guess now if transman doesn't want it. Also any alignment tool you may have that you no long want/need.

    Anyone have experience with installing a tranny rebuild kit?

    I wanted to get a replacement block but didn't want one "used" or reman. So, I purchased a "new, updated" solenoid block from an ebay member named Electrical Advantage if my memory is fine. I was under the impression that these should be dry and I received one that had fluid on/in it. I also...

    5R55S Shift Reprogram Kit Question

    Brad, thank you for the information. I ended up getting the Superior "Shift Kit", I've read that some of the springs can grow weak over time - is this true? I will definitely check the valve you have indicated. The truck has 132K on it, not sure how much longer the trans has. I know this won't...

    No gears

    TPS will have nothing to do with this. Do you have any fluid leaks? I'd start by checking fluid level... How many miles does it have? What kind of transmission?

    Anyone have experience with installing a tranny rebuild kit?

    Thanks for the info. I've emailed a few shops to see if they have the ability to do the bore and insert and have yet to hear back. I really didn't want to shell out for one of these kits along with a TC alignment tool, both of which seem to be expensive one-time use only tools (hopefully!) but I...

    Anyone have experience with installing a tranny rebuild kit?

    Carlos, As I am preparing to do the same rebuild as you very soon, I'm wondering how you plan to drill out the servo bores - did you get the bore kit with the guides for this? Cheers, Dan B.

    5R55S Shift Reprogram Kit Question

    Hi guys, I'm looking at adding a shift kit / improvement kit to my 5R55S, only I have no idea what I should get. I found the 5R55S "Shift Reprogramming Kit" from Transgo linked below and thought maybe this would be a good thing to get (link below). My question is, since the transmission is...

    WTB 5r55s Solenoid Pack

    I know some people have replaced their solenoid packs only to continue experiencing shifting issues so I thought I'd take a shot here and see if anyone has a known working pack they'd be willing to sell. I am like many others who am unsure if the solenoid pack is the problem or not. Let me know...

    Solenoid pack? 5R55S

    So I am still driving and my truck is still moving but I still notice shifting being different compared to before. Can anyone at least tell me if their sport trac has a loud click if you shift between 1-2-3?

    Solenoid pack? 5R55S

    Hey guys, new to the forum but have been reading here and there in this forum for years. I've been driving my 2007 Sport Trac since 2010, I got it with 57Kmi on it. Now I've got 124Kmi on it, engine is 4.0L and lovely 5r55s trans. Yesterday while driving home I took a turn, applied the gas...
