Damn! That's bitter sweet. No matter how well they take of you, it sucks that you got more wrenching to do. Give me first dibs when you get sick of it and want to part it out.

At least the motor is running okay. Does it feel strong? I hope you're breaking it in like we discussed. :thumb2:

Man that sucks. I feel your pain. I fucked my overdive up by having the shifter cable not adjusted properly. My screw up but still hated to have to pull the tranny for repairs. Hopefully all it will cost you is time.

I will be talking to FB tomorrow. I am fully confident that they will take care of me and resolve the issue. I have a feeling it might be a manufacturing defect on a part, and not their workmanship at all so no body go bashing them. They have been nothing short of awesome to me before and during the buying process and im sure it will continue with this.

Ron, as you know I am getting ready to go through FB for my new trans, so I will be watching this trans issue closely and how they deal with you. I figure if anyone would have a 4R70W failure, it would be you! After talking to Mike, I have a feeling they will be stand up, but just in case I will wait and see. That way if I need to adjust my order or ask them to beef something up, I'll already have that info, lol!

Yeah, my sister is moving to New York as we speak, so I have been looking at that part of the state fairly closely and already knew where Ron is at. It looked like a decent haul with a trailer.

73 miles, about an hour with no traffic. problem is i cant drive there with only 1st and second. Thinking about calling AAA as i got the AAA plus which is good for 100 miles of free towing. I gotta find out if that means one way or including the drivers round trip.

It's one way, Ron. I have availed myself of that service a few times.
