Well it has come time to rebuild my transmission. Ive recently replaced the governor solenoid and sensor, adjusted bands and replaced filter and fluids. Well now it is not down shifting. The forward band is worn beyond use, and I'm sure that with the shifting issues I've experienced over the last two year that the rest of the internal works are worn just as bad. Ive adjusted bands, changed fluid and filter, adjuster TV cable, replaced solenoid and sensor, and still no improvement. So it is just worn out, closing in on 200,000 miles with a stock tranny, I can't complain. :lol:So I'm doing the Sun Coast M3GA 3 Alto Transmission Kit, Sun COast Triple Disc Torque Converter, Sun Coast Billet FLex Plate/Fly Wheel, ARP Fly Wheel bolt upgrade, Sun Coast's governor solenoid upgrade it with housing, and Mag-Hytec 727 D Deep Dish Pan. What else should I change while in there? The rebuild kit from Sun Coast comes with every thing internal including shift kit for the valve body. But are there other parts I should do while Ive got the tranny on the bench, either to the truck or transmission. I am gonna replace the TV cable also as it is fraying up at the throttle connection. Thank guys.

Spring has sprung here in Minnesota, so in a few weeks I'll be able to haul my '94 to the shed to get working on it. I posted WAY back when I first found this forum on my build plans. I'll start here again to bring everyone back up to speed. First off, is this the right part of the forum to post a "build" thread? If not please direct me to the correct location. thanks I restored a '51 Pilothouse B3D truck that was my great grandfathers truck. I seem to have a disease now, lots of old truck parts in my house, garage and at friend's sheds. I decided a few years back I was going to take a modern powertrain and graft on a Pilothouse cab/front clip as a daily driver. This truck will be a stretched 3 door cab flat bed stake side hauler style truck. I've got all the old Pilothouse cabs and doors to cut apart and re-weld up to the stretched cab. As well as all the doors I could need to make the 3rd door and fill the space behind the passenger side door. The '94 has a fresh rebuilt tranny and about 150K on the engine. I've been thinking that since it will all be available to work on, going thru the engine and rear end would be a good idea right now. Before I start to tear things off, any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Plans include air ride, saddle fuel tanks, rear duals and a tip up front end like a semi for engine work. thanks, I look forward to keeping this thread moving over the course of the spring/summer while things start under way.
