just to note its not the trans that doing the clunk its the gear vendors there's no way of torque management or anything when it shifts so it has to shift like an th350 with a race shift kit for anyone that wants to know
I just picked up an 88 square body 3+3 dually with a 454. It has a 3 speed column shifter, I was gonna swap with a 4 speed floor auto. I got the truck with no info about it, and was working on her today and fired it up for the 1st time. There's tons of after market switches I was trying to figure out what they did, and discovered it has a Gear vendors. Just saved me tons! Glad I discovered your channel out of it. You seem alright...for a ford guy. 🤙
The guys at gear vendors get their panties in a bind when you mention GV with a transmission that already has OD even though it's advertised to use double OD. California nuts...
Nice Chevy truck man. Bummer the tranny/ torque converter is bad. To me, that sounds like the clutches in the torque converter are going bad. ( Not 💯 percent sure though. Love the headlight switch. Sure miss the old school. I hope things are going better for you than what they were man. Remember,do what makes you and your family happy. Life's just way too short. You're my friend man. And,I care about my friends. I don't have many good friends because most of them are sponges. (If you know what I mean). You my friend, aren't like that. I can tell your honest. And,in today's world, that Carry's weight man. But, whatever the scoop may be,I hope things are looking up for you. You have a good day man. And,talk to you later.👍✌️
I honestly wish it DIDN'T have the gear vendors. I mean it's nice and all for something that didn't already have OD but this thing turning 2200 RPM or w/e at 70 MPH is acceptable. I saw this truck on the site and got excited but I don't like that slamming into gear

Whoa!! That's a hell of a difference. I'm gonna look into this for my '75 Lincoln.
Its a pretty cool system!

I've thought about getting a GV for my 85 C30 dually. With a 454, TH400 trans and 4.10 gears she'll really benefit from it.
Learn something new everyday, Gear Vendors !! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and videos.
How does the overdrive work when you're doing full throttle pulls?
I've been looking for that info as well but too no avail
From what i have read and heard it wont split the gear until the final gear in the trans
I Kinda wish there was a 6 door Chevy Truck like that one from the mid90's

Mines doesn't slam into gear! What fluid are you using?
Well....of you lived in California....this would be specifically for better fuel economy
nice system
Probably 4l80e in that truck.
That or a 4L60E. My money is on the 60.
4l80e.
That's an 88-98 body, the 3/4 and 1 ton stayed obs past 98, and they have 4l80e.
This dude got so many trash cars… does one break and he just add it to the one day I’ll fix it pile.
