    This shop has been around since the mid 80's. Very good reputation and stand behind what they do. One thing i have learned over the years. The fly by night outfits just dont last long.

    Talked to the shop again. The guts of the trans look just like they did before. The trans cooler flowed well when they flushed it. Getting another complete rebuild and fixing the likely failing cooler in the radiator.

    I am just wondering if the solenoid pack took a dump. So that the trans aint building any pressure in the pump(s). Going to talk to the trans shop. At this time I am getting a quote of $1600 for a rebuild.

    Easy way to check for equipped ABS?

    slight hijack here. My old Dodge Ram 1500 just had rear wheel anti-lock on it. the four wheel was an option though. Had to replace a front hub due to a massive bearing failure.
