It appears those links are not any good.

I found this post at the other place from a fellow that said he worked for a company that supplied parts for both transmissions. I tend to believe 2% to be the max with the zf6.

Tell him not to worry about. It sounds like crap, but will pull till the cows come home:hihi:

Thanks Pepp. I thought for a while, I was loosing my mind ............... again:D

Yea Mike, I have the SouthBend in mine. It will hold a LOT of power and never even whimper. The only problem is that it is noisy. Sound like a throw-out bearing going bad ........... but that is just typical.

I haven't been here in a while, but what happened to the old threads .......... when Phil got it started??

Yes I have. Until I read the OP, I had not considered what brand of fuel it was, BUT the color was green so it MAY have been BP. It ruined my day, and cost me a grand by taking it to a dealer. I know now that I got ripped off, but I the time, I thought it was much more serious and might ruin...

Tell me about it, Jeff. When I was hauling my cypress lumber from La. to Mo. for my cabin, I had a blowout on the right rear going down hill at nearly 80 mph, with a total weight of about 30K) It was spooky for a while):h Sgt, exactly what do you mean by curb bounce? Does the larger...

You are exactly right. I did a LOT of tent camping when I was younger. Starting in the BSA, then continuing on many hunting trips, and simply tent camping for the fun of it. But with age, comes laziness/softness):h Although I did spend the night in a tent this past turkey season, (at 61) I...

That is kinda what I thought also, Nick:thumbsup:

Yea, John............it sure could have been MUCH worse.
