Well you found out the hard way. The al4d is a POS!! I would be swapping in a manual if i were in your position. Better then rebuilding for the 3rd time.
 






I was thinking about switching to the 5speed, I had to change out my tranny today..The machanic said that even though the A4LD is crap the 5speed is even WORSE...I dont ilke those odds....
 






maybe swap in an AOD or C4/5?
 






i have recently gotten my tranny rebuilt by lee myles and so far so good i have a year of plowin and towing on the tranny now . but it cost alot to beef the front end up to support the wieght
 






what kind of manual 5spd tranny problems have you heard about? I have the manual 5spd in mine and have never had a single problem..not one!

As for plowing....like Joey said....make mods to the front end!
