So I got my gears in and about 500 miles on them. I decided to take it on the freeway yesterday and see what it has off the line now. Everything was going good since I the traction light kept flashing.... I get up to about 80 when I let out of it and start dropping back to cruising speed. I check my mirror and smoke starts pouring out from under truck like there is a leaf fire. I get the brakes hard and pull to the berm and hop out. Trans fluid is pouring out by the bell housing. At this point I am pretty concerned and called AAA to get the truck home. I get under the truck and started to look for a hole in the case even though I didnt hear any sounds when it happened. I found the Pressure line for the cooler came out from the transmission and was the source of the leak. Now I am going to convert everything over to -AN braided line and hoping since I was on decel and stopped within 20 seconds of seeing smoke I didn't wipe out 3-4... Truck has about 30k on it so I will use this time to pull the pan and change the fluid and filter.

 

Factory warrenty still on it. Im geussing not though with mods in ur sig

 

Nope this one's on me....

 

I did all AN fittings on my rig and it is soo clean and easy. Any idea how much fluid it lost?

 

Quite a bit very fast but I am not sure on the amount. Im hoping that since I was slowing down so basically coasting when it started and then stopped asap I saved it.

 

What size tires you running man? Just curious because I see you have level kit and 4.88s. Wondering if you squeezed 35s on a level kit or just went all out torque on 33s.

 

Factory tires are 32 but I think I'm gonna stick w 33. For the brief moment I was doing 70 it was like 2400 rpm

 

Gear is what a 4.8 needs in a ext cab hands down

 

Damn man I'd love to drive that, my 4.56 are getting installed now. Should've went 88s. How much MPG did up lose?

 

Since I have been in breakin so not really in it or freeway avg 17
