Tranny rebuild....
Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 12:02 pm
Assuming my fuel system problem can be fixed for a reasonable amount of money 
the next thing I will address is the tranny issue. I thought I ran across a post on this forum that described how to rebuild the tranny in my 96 stro but I cannot find it. All I found was a post on rebuilding a 5 speed.
What I am looking for are suggestions on how to rebuild it with a view to towing a trailer (most of the time would be a tent trailer but sometime might be a 20+ footer. I am going to add a good tranny cooler for sure...and I am hoping the rebuilt tranny will run for another 100K miles, at least. One last thing - I just did some searching and have run across some posts that suggested that the torque converter that I use might have an impact on mpg. What do you know about this?
