Transgo Manual valve body kit

Postby DodgeFreak » Wed Jun 25, 2014 10:56 am

Has anyone ordered one from patc??? Is the TFOD-3 the only manual kit transgo offers??? I was on ebay and found a tfod-3 stage 3 kit with a separator plate and more stuff but on the transgo site it doesn't show it and the patc site doesn't have the transgo number. If PATC's kit is just the tfod-3 kit then summit sells it for 116 bucks shipped when patc is chargine 162 bucks....plus shipping....

Call Transgo...

The pictures not showing the separator plate are pretty much a bare bones kit for a non-O/D trans. I suspect it's just a representative picture and 99 out of 100 people would never know the difference :lol:

So I'd call Transgo.

If you order from Summit, buy a reusable gasket!!!!!!!

I meant this, it's an inside joke at work. Several years ago a salesman sold a guy some beat to crap backhoe that barely started without ether, and the gay paid about $15k, which was the going price for a decent one. When we asked the salesman why he bent the guy so bad he replied, "he's a one time customer!". Well no Shit, after that he sure is! :lol:

Some people just have no idea the going rate, or fall in love with something and don't check on what it's worth. I know that never happens with these old trucks, right? :lol:
