how do you like the auto? would you swap to a 5 speed if you had one? i heard bad things about the auto in a 22re.. Tourq Converters going out and what not when wheelin.. my buddy has a 86 22re auto and he cant even get his tires spinning in the mud when he is trying to... it seems gutless as hell! haha

ordan300

some of the guy's i wheel with are thinking of going to an auto
I dont have any problems with spinning them I have a problem of twisting my front drive line  like a piece of tatty
mine you that i have a 3.0 v6 I been runniing it for 3 yrs

Halladay

replaced your head gaskit lately? haha jk thats just another thing i have heard about 3.0s but idk i have never owned one  :beerchug:

mattlosch

i like my 3.0, have not had any problems so far and it makes decent power... i think im going to go to a single gear driven case with 4.7's.....

i just figured it would have some brace tubes going to the ends of it from the middle on the lower part for more stability but if its strong... its strong.

looks good though :thumbs:

its pretty stout as it is but I do wish we would have added some tubes like that.... it will all be tied into the cage were building next then it will be super legit!
