Message: [QUOTE="09strokerpwr, post: 1530597, member: 11384"] So back story is I had a stage 3 trans from Rudy's diesel. Tuned by ******* sotf. Put 40000 on trans without a problem. Last fall was driving my truck and when the converter locked it let go. So took to a local shop and found that the billet input shaft was snapped, toasted the converter. So he built me a new trans with better shaft new precision converter and clutch packs. So after getting truck back I took it easy on trans for bout 600 miles. Then one night driving I went to pass a car with the converter locked up. Something felt off could feel a vibration and seemed low on power. Soon as I let up on throttle went away. So on next stright away I gave it again and same thing. I monitor torque converter slip on dash daq and seen the number spike all the way up to 700rpm. Took the truck back to trans shop showed him what was happening. He took the trans out went threw it and got a new converter. Only to have same problem. Truck has now been there almost weekly since December. He has replaced torque converter 4 times tried different brand this last time. New value body, all new solenoids, 3 different pumps. 1 used working and 1 new from Ford. All new pressure switches, springs and even a brand new tcm. I have tried returning truck to stock and redoing tunes only to have some results. I'm starting to run out of patience and he is running out of ideas. So far this hasn't costed me a dime besides the inconvenience of dropping truck off Sunday nights and picking up Friday night and getting rides to and from. Other then the converter not holding under lock up with a load on it trans shifts and works great. Open to ideas or suggestions. Thanks [/QUOTE]
