Good stuff Dave. I love my upgraded Goerend transmission in my Dodge diesel. A very significant mpg gain since install. Also way lower towing temps too. Thanks for all the phone conversations and emails to clarify my personal needs.

That is very interesting, what upgrades did you get and how do they increase mpg?

@@wekeeptruckin Hello We KeepTruckin. I did a number of upgrades to my 47re trans. Most importantly I bought a Goerend upgraded valve body and torque converter. There were other upgrades of internal parts too including the input shaft. According to Dave's instructions I added a under dash 2nd gear lock-up switch for pulling on hills...where I leave the trans in 2nd gear and lock up the converter....perfect for slower speed hill climbing, which we did. What convinced me that I got my monies worth was two identical trips I took over two different years. The first year, with the old stock transmission, I took a long trip under full load and towing a boat/trailer. The old trans shifted fine but was soft and mushy between shifts. The next year I took the exact same trip....same exact loads....same exact route....same time of year....same times of the day......same exact load.....same weather too. On the first trip I used just barely over 3 tanks of fuel. On that second trip with the upgraded transmission I used just barely over 2 tanks of fuel. The slippage of that mushy original transmission on that first trip cost me one whole tank of fuel over the newer, upgraded trans. There were some 16% grade gravel roads when in 4x4 the 2nd gear lock-up was used extensively. Transmission temps were way lower the 2nd trip, control of the vehicle was easier too. I also bought a higher capacity Goerend transmission pan, which holds more fluid, which probably helps with cooling some. My new 47re works great with my Cummins diesel engine.....and is still going strong after 60k.

Can this be done with the valve body on the transmission AND in the truck?

You can leave the transmission installed in the truck. You would need to drop the pan and remove the valve body to complete this installation.

I just bought a 48re 1000hp trans and new it has this issue. Mine it a little worse than yours. My trans does not like to go into first. If it does its hard to get it out. Takes a lot of effort. Same for park, and 2nd to drive. It is a full manual vb. I checked by hand before I installed. Made a call to the builder, and was told it is normal. Thought maybe it would fade away but its got really bad in 2 days. Will this likely fix it?

If your valve body currently has a detent ball and the bore is worn, a bullet will give you some improvement by engaging the detent bore below the worn area. When the bore is excessively worn, the shifter may still be hard to move with just the bullet, so in these cases we also install a Sonnax detent repair sleeve in addition to the bullet on the valve bodies we build.
