>>I think the 45RFE is a fine piece and
if cared for properly(Fluid & filter changed at every oil change,extra
large cooler-preferably electric fan assisted,temp gauge to make sure it's
never overheated<<
seems like an awful lot of work to me... I mean, fluid and filter changes
are expensive even if you do them yourself, and every oil change? are you
serious?
My tranny has 160k miles on it, the cooler is built in to the radiator and
it doesn't have an elec. fan on it, no temp gauge, and I change the fluid
and filter whenever I tune it up. Tranny works fine to this day and shifts
nice n' firm. I would hope that all that extra stuff wouldn't be necessary
for a factory shipped tranny. I know your average soccer mom/ wannabe truck
guy wouldn't wanna have to buy all that extra shit just to keep their trucks
runnin'...
