my friend has one and it shifts hard but it will hold it in gear for a long time before shifting when your just cruising. it shifts good when he is on it but i wouldn't install a shift kit unless i think its needed. my truck shifts really good how it is and has very little lag in between shifts.

the 93 tranny is probably different than the ones in the 99 year.

how did the race go Fed?
i bet you won or should have won.
if you didn't its ok. i lost to a hemi just about 15mins ago and he ate me. the funny thing is that ford and chevy cant keep up so its a race between chryslers.

with 4.10s that cherokee will be eating you exhaust.

Mopar318, summit racing sells one for $109.99 (part # TRG-TFOD). I saw the installation video for self install. I wouldn't even dream to install it myself.

Thanks for part number. I searched summit through my year of truck and it wasn't listed. I guess you have to search the type of transmission.

i don't have track info.. there is no track nearby. The shop is still working on the kit, cause there is some other unrelated problem in the tranny. When they're done I'll try to find out from them separate charge for the shift. Will post here.
