You take the thermostat housing right off. I would say about one ounce of fluid comes out. It requires a 13mm wrench or socket, pliers, and a good snap ring tool. I used the the interchangeable snap ring head to remove the C clips for the cooler lines. A pick would have been better suited. I brought the thermostat inside to do the flip as it can be a little easier than under the truck haha

Thank you very much for the reply. So I ended up finding a similar video and got my "pill flipped". Everything is back together and my trans now runs between 135°-150°. Thank you all for your suggestions. Sometimes I forget how helpful this forum can be. ??

What exactly does flip the pill mean? Am I literally flipping part of the thermostat, or am I removing the springs etc.?

I've always thought a flush was a last resort, but it's what the dealership wanted to do and I know nothing about trans. I saw a few videos about the delete and that is very doable. I think I saw that the new lines come with a new thermostat? I might start with the thermo delete and go from there. If anything I will do a de-grease, brake cleaner/air compressor clean out of those lines unless it isn't advised. Thank you!

The tech said that he didn't notice any metal shavings in the oil pan. The trans operation has been very consistent through this all except for a one minute duration of going through town. At about 25 mph it didn't want to shift down. Other than that the trans has been acting as normal. It has always had a slight slip here and there when going into third gear.

I'll get right to it. I keep an eye on my trans fluid temp, and about a week ago I noticed my temps going past 210°. I was seeing 235°-237° consistently. I brought it to a trusted dealership and they confirmed a cold trans return line. Fluid was dirty and the flush machine confirmed some blockage. So the dealership flushed until the flow was within spec, replaced fluid and filter and I was on my way. The trans temp got up to 234° on my way home testing it out. What're y'alls thoughts? I'm friends with the tech that worked on it and he seems to believe I might have a torque converter issue. Thanks in advance for the help and advice.

I do not have a picture readily available, but my wires are scuffed to the point that bare wires are showing. Please let us know about this automotive accents. I need new wires as it is. I also have the RCX 7.5" lift. Should have went higher.... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So let's say your lift kit does come with alignment specs....Why should you need these specs if they use one of those fancy light/laser alignment machines and he makes the adjustments off of that? I go to NTB. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I read someplace that you can get a programmer that disables this feature. I wonder if it can be done with a black bear tune? Can anyone chime in on it....perhaps Jenna from Blackbear? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

if I had a 35w kit, could I just swap out ballasts to switch to a 55w kit? Or what does it entail.

Still having trouble with this resizing issue. I unfortunately only have an iPad.

Do any of you gentlemen know how I can decrease the size of my photos? I have one that it won't even let me post. It is really annoying and I can only post a few if any pics at a time. Thanks
