Default transgo shift kit

I just ordered a transgo kit for my T/A, and I want to find out any problems I may run into before I attempt this installation, any forewarnings or tips would be appreciated.

I would consult with Dana at Pro-Built Automatics on the proper size for the separator plate feed holes, and a couple of other pointers. The instructions are poor, and when you buy a kit from him, he adds to and modifies them.

The video is pretty good, but a little outdated. Just remember that the written instructions take precedence over the video.

Yeah, I sent him a PM a while back wondering about the correct shift kit to get, but he hasn't responded yet. So the one on his site is the one to get eh??

The "modified" kit is what he says to get, it comes in the blue box.

Even if you didn't buy the kit from him, you can call him. He's helpful on the phone and explains in detail the modifications he recommends to the kit. The best deal is to call him.
