transmission

I finished building my Suzuki powered, Rock Lizard buggy, a little over a month ago. I’ve taken it out three times. Every time, I’ve had problems with the TH180 transmission, puking out way too much fluid, when the nose is in the air and I’m working the buggy really hard to make it up in...

I was snow wheeling this weekend and smoked my th350. What’s the trick to keep these things happy in the snow. Yes my trans cooler probably needs to be bigger. I was running a 4.3 vortec 2.28 case 5.29 diff and 37s at about 3000-3500rpm in 3rd gear and it would run about 220temp and then I’d...

The front output shaft on my 2014 Ranger 800 Crew wore down enough to cause a nasty vibration. When I cracked it open, I found the turf mode differential carrier cracked and ready to gernade the case. I like the turf mode and plan to keep it, any insight on parts? I can only seem to find turf...

My tow rig 48re (4x4) is getting tired. Specs: 2004.5 HO Cummins, 240k SB I’ve kept it stock for the 220k miles I’ve owned it. (Trans is known weak link). I tow 8k, 8-12 times a year to Fordyce, Hammers etc. After my new trans, I want to add cold air, cat back, maybe a mild chip...

Wheeling last weekend and had an issue where we had a punctured transmission pan. While I tried to think my may through the situation logically and prevent further damage I realized that I had very little assurance that we were making the right assumptions. My TJ has an auto as well and I would...

Was going to put this in newb section but figured its kinda tracker specific question so might get more hits here. I have a weird ass project idea in my head and need to go from a 1.0L 3cyl to a RWD layout transmission. First thought went straight to samurai since they are small,light,fairly...

I've got a heathy 6.0 lq9 hooked up to a 700r4. 4.88s, 40s, jeep weighs 5,300 lbs with me in it. This is my first rig I've had an automatic in, and it has taken a little adjustment. Up until last weekend all I've really done is go crawling with the thing and it is phenomenal at that. This last...

New question specific to 2005 4runners.. trying to find the name of this brace...It goes from the frame to the transmission crossmember. I’m looking for those who have pulled it off to mount skid plates/etc, and if they had any issues. Is it common to pull it off?

Trying to sort out OD on the ramcharger I bought a while back because 4.56 gears and 35s don't play at freeway speeds with a 3 speed. When I bought the rig I was told by the PO that the trans was a 3speed plus electronic OD, but that the switch or a relay or something had gone out. He lived...

I have a jk wrangler now that's a 3.8 stick shift. I can not make up my mind on auto vs stick shift. Motors options are a TDI or LS. I have done some crawling with mine but its hard to tell because the 3.8 and 3.21 gears were terrible. If you have done a motor and or transmission swap. Whats...

I tend to overthink things. So here is my latest attempt. 1995 F350 diesel 4x4. E4OD and 1356 transfer case. Recently I discovered that I have a shift fork problem in my TC, wasn't too worried about it because I couldn't find where that caused other issues as long as was able to get it back...
