I have an '06 Ram 3500 w/ an AIRAID Intake, 5" MBRP Exhaust and a Bully Dog Triple Dog with Outlook Monitor. I want to upgrade teh Tranny without having to pull it. What would be better a shift kit, or a whole new entire valve body kit? The valve body kit is 10 times more expensive than the shift kit, but would that really be better? Thanks. John
Yes, the whole VB is what you want. I tried to do just a trans-go shift kit, but the kit wouldn't bump up the line pressure going to the converter lock up clutch. I then went with the Suncoast complete valve body. The ready to go VB's are better anyway IMHO, as the shifts are better and they get the line pressure up where it needs to be for the converter. You'll need to pull the trans to get a new converter installed. You want a triple disk low stall efficient converter, like an 89% or so. If you don't, because you don't want to have to pull the trans, then the stock converter will limit you greatly.
