Yeah. I know these tranny's aren't the best in the market but if you know how to drive them then they can actually be quite strong. I used to sit at every stop light when I was younger with my foot on the gas and brake and both were on the floor trying to break the tranny (don't ask, long story) and I couldn't make it slip at all. And that was with a comp. Did numerous power brakes and 20psi (yes, 20psi) boosted launches on it with no issues. After the valvebody I actually quit doing that stuff. Go figure.

 

trust me i have tried as well. i am getting a Full billet built by Dave and have tried to fry this one and just cant seem to. the first 4 stock ones went withen 5k miles of each other. i have about 12k on this one and its holding strong. i dont know what the deal is. i mean if i race with out the lock up switch, i can slip the TC BAD but if i race it locked up, i havent had one problem with slipping at all. i mean i have raced so many trucks that should have beat me. new Dmaxs with lots of work done, cummins that should be way faster than mine, and a bunch of powerchokes and have beat them all. i mean like i have said a long time ago. my buddy has an 03 REGULAR cab long box with the HOT juice, full DTT tranny , diablo programmer, and water meth and he should walk all over me and i end up getting him by 2 or 3 truck lengths. i just think my truck is a freak of nature.

 

Yup. Yours was built during the middle of the week. Mine was built at the end of friday before thanksgiving.

 

that was a good one

 

03' should be 48re, and the 48's are tougher trannies, bolted up to stock 300 HP motors

 

03s were half and half. some were 47re and some were 48re.

 

Video!............

 

i did take a video of my truck doing 2 boosted launches in 4x4. one was at 15 psi and the other was at 20psi. for some reason i am having trouble getting them from the video camera to my computer. if it wont work out, i will take video with my phone then just e mail them to myself.
