^^^ She understands there’s not much I can do. from 900 miles away, but I’ve been helping her look online, finding a shop, talking to the guys, etc. They have the transmission rebuilt, with updated aftermarket parts, back in the truck and are dialing it in. Hopefully it’ll be ready this afternoon and tomorrow morning she can start to head back home again.
Talking to the guys at the shop, they recommended replacing the fluid and filter, every 25 to 30,000 miles.
As we bought it used, who knows if it was ever changed, except when we were looking into the starting issue and replaced the neutral safety switch. There was a ton of fines on the magnet and in the pan. The shop that did the work at that time, said the transmission was on its final legs. We just wanted to nurse it to get it home and have it repaired here.
