What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

[pjmoreland]

I've pulled the governor out of my 700R4 eight times so far over the last two evenings in an attempt to raise the WOT 1-2 shift point to somewhere in the 5000-5500RPM range using a TCI kit. The two heaviest weights in the kit with the two heaviest springs were still above 5500RPM, and the 2-3 shift at part throttle was happening way too early, so I resorted to grinding down the original weights. Now I've got it shifting at around 5300RPM, and the part throttle shifts are spaced apart nicely. My wife snapped this picture as she was coming home from work yesterday evening.
