Re: Stock AOD Strength Reply #15 – January 22, 2005, 07:42:44 AM Quote from: dominatorQueston about the trans go hp kit(the expensive one).That tube that goes from a passage to the manual valve(the one that you have to drill into the valve body)What is that thing for?If i remember correctly(yea its been a while), it disables a pressure cutback circuit that reduces pressure applied to the clutch packs AFTER the shift is complete. Supposidly less pump pressure, better gas milage(per Ford).I also have a old Lentech mod that allows me to shift 1, 2, 3/OD. It's why I had to reinst my orig 3-4 shift valve, as I didn't want full throttle shifts to OD. Yea it broke the py SC input(the earlier shafts are actually a lot stronger), but I opted fot the hardened aftermarket piece. Quote Selected

I believe the Trans-Go manual valve is part of the cut back mod. It doesn't have anything to do with the shift pattern. I have the video out in the garage, if I get a chance I'll skim through it. The instructions are py, but the vid more than makes up for it. Quote Selected
Re: Stock AOD Strength Reply #18 – January 22, 2005, 08:59:25 PM Cool check for me if you can.What i meant by the manual valve though, is the long valve that connects to the shifter inside the tranny that alows you to manually select which gear you want.The valve only has one differance from stock about 3 quarters of the way up the valve,i'm pretty sure that the changing of this valve is what changes the manual shift pattern to 1 2 3/4 instead of the usual 1/2 3 4.Also i remember you talking about breaking your input shaft under a wot 3 4 shift.That is why i ask about leaving the stock 3/4 valve in the trans, you said in another posted thread that you reinstalled yours.

Re: Stock AOD Strength Reply #20 – January 23, 2005, 02:09:25 PM You don't have to remove the cross member just loosen up the trans mount bolts and pry the cross member back a bit and retighten.Then remove the pan. Quote Selected
Re: Stock AOD Strength Reply #21 – January 23, 2005, 02:25:50 PM I fkd around with the pan trying to get it out without taking off the xmember, then just said screw it and took it off Quote Selected
