The advice on making sure a gun is 'comfortable' for you to use and that you practice using it is golden. It matters a whole lot less what you choose as compared to making sure that you are totally comfortable with it and capable of using it if the need arises. I don't have huge hands, but...

I carry a Glock 30 and love it. Darrin

If they replace the planet you should make sure to have them upgrade you to the gearset from an 04. That one has hardened pinions and is a definite upgrade. The price you were quoted is cheap. Spend the extra it takes and take advantage of this opportunity to move to a superior part for not that...

^^^ That right there is a great post. It's information that needs to be a sticky actually. Darrin

If anyone in my area needs this done I can do it for you for that $50 the OP was charged. I have keys, a key cutter and the tools to program the vehicle with for this. Happy Thanksgiving to all! Darrin

Actually there are definitely ways to allow it to go into OD at those speeds and not loose the feel of the original idea the tuner was going for when they set it up that way. Usually the reason a tuner will set it up to either stay out of OD or lockup or both until over 40mph is to keep the car...

Almost 100% of the time it does not show up any way other than by driving it because the problem is isolated to very specific conditions. This is another one of those questions that get asked almost every single time that I forgot to mention above. I think that price was for 8. Snatch those...

That's all I got then for now. So if you think it's realted to a problem in the TCC circuit somewhere then I would start by ohming out that circuit at the computer and then checking the resistance of the solenoid by unhooking everything and putting the meter directly on the solenoid itself...

It wouldn't explain that of course. But are you getting any codes from the computer on that? If you think that is the issue then you need to start working your way through the wiring harness all the way from the transmission to the computer to see where the high resistance connection or wire is...

I am going to tell you this from a lot of experience with this problem on several different Ford platforms. What you do with it is up to you. I am definitely NOT saying that this is your problem, but almost 90% of the time the problem behind this exact complaint ends up being a low grade...

I think I posted that in a thread somewhere here before. Handy aint it? Darrin

You guys have no idea how thankful I am that someone was watching over us that night and that I am sitting here typing and joking about it. Actually my left wrist and ankle still hurt like hell and are reminding me that I am 45. If I were 20 I would have forgotten about it already. Everyone...

I will be the first to say it... That will buff right out. LOL Darrin

To prevent any misunderstanding, I am not at all joking or anything like that at all with what I posted there. You want a transmission like is in Dennis' car. In my opinion that transmission was built by the best in the business. Darrin

On the way home from picking up my son tonight we got in an accident that totalled our 04 Mustang. Personal injury wise things came out for the best and nobody really got hurt. The girls in the other vehicle were beyond hysterical and will definitely be sore tomorrow, but I think the worst...
