Kind of sounds like with my old transmission where it seemed like it was slipping when I tried to take off. I'm not trying to be a jerk here but I don't understand why more people don't go with APS and get a nice transmission. It seems like 90% of the posts I read from people getting them rebuilt locally are unhappy and still have transmissions that aren't working correctly and or don't seem to last. _____________________________ 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 Offroad Edition with the 360.

I chose to get it done locally because the shop here build their own tc's and has a good track record he told me to bring it back monday if the govoner started to act up again. it acted up when they first test drove it but it freed up and was fine now im wondering if it could be something else.
