I need one now. No reverse, lurches in neutral, only have 3rd and 4th gear. Talked to a dealer and a trans place and they both said one of the clutches friction welded. (my 4th liked to slip)

GF was driving when it happened and I never told her about 4th gear so Im sure thats what happened.

Original trans for 104k. Fluid changed once at 45k. Took a good beating from me.

**** happens I guess.

 

Tundra has done this multiple times.sucks to hear.

 

Im probably looking at just under $2k for rebuild but it will get better parts for that $2k

 

You can get buy one cheaper than that

 

I know this but the rebuild will be with upgraded parts

 

I just bough Mongorats 2007 4t45e with 1800 miles for $425 shipping included. I had designs on a built one, ZZP or otherwise but will settle for a nearly new and add a zzp TC.

keep us posted, I'd love to see what can be done build wise.

 

Im thinking I might just throw another stock one in. Its cheap enough and Ill save at least $500 by doing it that way.

 

It sucks pushing the car out of the driveway every morning!

I just have to figure out if my 4th was spinning from abuse or my tune is off.

 

Your pushing more power than its designed for.get a giant trans cooler to help with heat.Tundra has a built 4t45 from ipt and it still fried the clutch packs together.

 

And change the fluid a little more often, once it burns it isn't ATF anymore. 3rd year boosted now and I've done 3 fluid changes and 2 filters. I'd say our hobby puts these tranny through 'severe service' and PM needs to be adjusted accordingly.

 

Yea I should do it every 30k religiously. I did it once at 45k and thats it. 104k now.

I do have a trans cooler and it seems to help with temps.

I guess its better to have 3rd and 4th rather than be stuck with 1st and 2nd.

 

Stick with the stock one IMO. I'd be angry if it wasnt me that broke my **** lol

 

Since you are swapping it out, I emailed TurboTim last night about the ZZP TC. I was looking for the best stall speed for our platform and here is what he had to say:

I would go with the 2750 stall, I think that will work great. You wont need much stall because the car is light and it has a supercharger so there will never be a lack of down low power.

Just an FYI is you are going to do an easy TC upgrade.
