Hi again,

I wanted to ask if someone here tried to rebuild the gear of there AUTOMATIC Mustangs 2003

last year I had a problem with the shifting and according to my mechanic my clutches where a little "wear out" and since back then I was too short in my cash he offered to "push" them together... as he said, and said it must work for maybe 6 month to a year maybe 2 years max.

and it was working fine , untill few weeks " at least I think "

watch this video to see what I mean.


I have just uploaded the video , it must be live in few mnts.

anyway. if you took alook on the video, you might have noticed two things.

1-the first 2-3 seconds of acceleration , it's a little slow , or LAGGY as I call it,then the car will kick down good...
2- because my friend asked for that lame song, you can't hear the sound while shifting but it's like a squeck sound " I don't think it's the tire spinning.
3- the end of the 2nd gear before shifting to 3rd is a little slow...


or maybe all that is just my imagination


now for the main point, if I want to rebuld my tranny. and reccomanded set ?

I found this one here.
http://www.latemodelrestoration.com...-04-Mustang-4R70w-Max-Performance-Rebuild-Kit
and few on ebay .

I always was thinking of upgrading the tranny as I am thinking of getting a supercharger for my car. " or do I NOT need this kind of support for the tranny ?"

thank you so much .
