They shifted soft which creates heat and most issues stem from mis adustment of the tv cable and misunderstanding of what it is. People tow with them in overdrive and then beat on them when they have high mileage. A truck trans is f made for performance. It's a comfort and good mpg trans. Just like an engine you have to build them for the use you need or want.

Transmissioncenter.net patc specializes in these transmissions.
