Yea, you needed a shift kit, a converter, and trans tuning a while ago. Mine will.get hot too. Its burning the seals out of it.

Will higher shift pressure help it a little? I got high pressure tunes so it doesn't slip but still runs at 250-260. but I know I need something soon.

It wohld have in theory. Drain your pan and see how much filing is in it. If the bottom quart looks like mercury, you're in trouble.

I pulled the stick last week and its way to burnt I having the dealer change the fluid next week to "make it last for now"

You can drain 7ish qts out through the pan and then put fresh in.

My truck was fine when I chipped it, probably around 250k, everything else stock other than exhaust. I installed 238/100's probably around 260k, and the trans **** the bed shortly after. I would guess I was between 425-450ish horse after injectors and gearhead tunes. It got so bad I could sit at a stoplight in gear with my foot off the brake, and the truck wouldnt budge, until I got it around 2000 rpms lol. Limped it sround that way for about 3 months, hoping everyday it would last until my bts arrived

 

[TyCorr]

Yea, that's where Im headed gho. Its getting.gnarly,lol.

No studs or valve springs with those.hybrids?

 

[ghohouston]

Motor was bone stock internally, no studs or springs. Daily drove it for over a year and a half with those injectors, put over 60 miles a day on it, beating on it daily. Honestly, the only real problems I had out of my truck the whole time I had it was it ate a set of batts every winter, I blew up the rear end, and the trans. The 2 times it left me stranded were batts and rear end.

 

[ghohouston]

It did have an e99 block with forged rods though...

 

[TyCorr]

Yea. Im pretty.certain Ill run a similar injector. Probably an 80 or 200% nozzle though.

Im not after a specific number. Just power and clean running.

 

[Mark Kovalsky]

So I assume he would need a trans from a 99-03 4x4 diesel?

If you want it to mate to a 6.4L you need a trans from a 5.4L or 6.8L, 1999-2004. The 6.4L has the same bolt pattern as the Ford Modular engines. The 7.3L pattern is different.

With a 38r and 1.0 exhaust housing and gearheads tunes, in all tunes except the "all out" tune, the 38r cleaned them up nicely. The hot tune was a smokey mofo, looked like what you'd expect from a cummins.

Did they have a E4OD "HD" option?

I was told that was what was in my OBS when I bought it, but I'd never heard of one so I figured the old man I bought it from got took.

It does pop the shifts...

 

[CSIPSD]

Just since I found it...LOL

I've got one in a truck, which has held up far better than the purple piece'o'**** ATS the previous owner installed. Not sure on the specifics, but from what I understand it utilizes the same converter as the HD-4R100. Can't say what else is different.
Looking at the receipt...looks like I've got another two weeks to blow mine up for a free replacement :evil

Interesting... It seems to be a decent trans.

Thank you sir!! man you 7.3 guys derail in a heartbeat!! LOL

I've had good luck with mine so far. It's no BTS but for having a 3yr unlimited mileage warranty the price is very respectable.
