My upper separator gasket was blown out as well, in a few places. One place was around the reverse servo. Ford has a TSB regarding the gaskets blowing out. Ford TSB 03-22-10.

Can’t thank You enough!!! Cleaned my (first timer) and took note of everything except the pins because I didn’t think they would fall off easily, well two did, and I didn’t know where to put them. You helped me with that! 🙏🏽

I wasn't really trying to criticize you or your product. I guess I spoke too soon because the method i mentioned of updating the valve body is the way I learned and I failed to realize that's not the only way or process to do it. I have done more research since and I see that there's different ways of achieving results, it all depends on what exactly you're wanting to accomplish with the performance of your transmission.

Its easier to take out the keepers by pushing the valve a little, at the same time. Nice explanation

your skill and courage should be applauded! I have a question about the solenoids. Is there one just for the downshifting into the passing gear? Out of the blue my 2000 ranger will not drop into the passing gear but for all the other gears it's smooth as silk. Any thoughts? tx. Would using something like Seafoam Transtune work?

The shift solenoids, does one of them control the downshift passing gear? My 2000 ranger shifts up and down smoothly but I can never get it to shift down for passing. Tx

i installed this kit into my ranger with a 3.0 and it shifts hard as hell from 1-2. new EPC fixed the 2-3 flare, but the 1-2 is so damn strong it feels like its going to snap something inside the trans. what do you think?

@@alexanderwebb680 i actually figured it out by reading some LS (chevy) forums. on the back side of an EPC solenoid, there is a torq bit screw you can adjust for pressure. i backed it off (CCW) 1/8th of a turn and it made the hard shift go away. but it was too soft, so i turned it back 1/16th of a turn (CW) and it brought it to a good pressure where it doesn't slam anymore, but still has a much firmer feel than stock. nice clean shifts.

You didn't drill out the valve body channel wall over by the pressure reducer valve, or drill a new Port between shift valves 2 and 3. And there's a hole on the separator plate that should be plugged with filler rod and another hole that needs to be made smaller by pleasing it between 2 steel balls. How much difference does what you did actually do? And why does the kit you used come with springs for the OD drum clutch, those will come with a complete tranny rebuilt kit,, which you would need if you get in that far to take out the OD drum? Good video but the kit you're selling is incomplete for a valve body upgrade and has other items that are unessasary for a shift kit.

Hello, Thank you for the input! We have had a lot of very positive reviews on the performance of this shift kit. I believe you are talking about the TransGo shift kit. This is the Superior Shift Kit. They both address different problems in different ways. You make a good point that the shift kit comes with a few extra parts that are only needed in a full rebuild. But that's just what it comes with, like i mentioned this is a complete Superior Shift Kit and we have had a lot of success with it. Also it is made 100% in the USA. I appreciate the feedback, and i will be looking into the TransGo kit in the future to see if it is a more successful kit.

Yes, what he's working on is the valve body which is bolted to the bottom of the transmission located inside the pan. So drop the pan then you can unbolt the valve body from the bottom of the transmission.

When I pulled my cover plate off I didn't have the metal valve. Truck was hard shifting 1-2, struggled finding 3rd time to time and slipped after an hour of driving and going up a hill at 55. Also wouldn't shift into overdrive. Is there I way I can order just that valve as I've got a sonnax zip kit on the way? Or does the kit come with a new valve.

What year is your truck? Vehicles manufactured after 12/01/2001 did not have the shiney metal valve or the screen and one of the end plugs is different, it has 6 holes in it and a center hole.

Shouldn't you be spaying some chemtool, wd40, or brake cleaner in the bores befor replacing the valves? I'm just an ameture, but just wondering... what do ya think? Forgive me for being naive, but I know moost good valve body rebuilders usually thoroughly clean the vslve body befor rebuilding or putting a shift kit in it. So don't get me wrong, i like your video on how to, do it yourself, the only thing i can say is, you are obliviously a pro that does this all the time. It would be a little better for us ametures, if you used a better camera, or photographer to get in much closer, so we can see what the fuck your doing sir. But thanks for sharing your expertise on this subject.
