Nice 5 inch straight pipe

@ryannunns2942 says:

Ford gave them a good transmission and they filled it full of shit that’s what happened! GM take quality out everything!!

@MCGDEC says:

Your totally right, gm and other brands don't put in a drsin plug.. Anytime I service a trans , I install a new pan with plug if availiable. The mess of pouring off a full pan of trans fluid is absolutely STUPID!

@societydweller9485 says:

He nailed the problem with the pan. It's a GM.

@philburch1970 says:

Why not just drill the existing pan, tap the hole, and install a drain plug?!?

@lrobie123 says:

Banks is all about Fins and Sturdy metal

@DarkLinkAD says:

Just tap a dang plug, dont spend hundreds on a pan.

@GMK6300L says:

I’ve heard of the GM hydramatic, the Problematic is more like it

@curtis9795 says:

Hopefully it helps these JUNK transmissions.

@djoftha213 says:

Nice! They look great!

@wh1856 says:

It's a depreciating asset. With all the aftermarket stuff you put on it I'm not sure your really saving.

@wh1856 says:

Why not just drill a drain plug into the original pan? Done it on my vehicles not very expensive.

@TheKillerMarine says:

Gm has and always will be trash

@jeffreyhearn8404 says:

It’s absurd that you have to do all of this extra work to prevent $80k truck from failing.

Civilization is doomed, we will be fighting for a cave space in 50 years .

@Mac7504-OG says:

Eat shit gm. I got a recall on my ZL1 for your shitty 10speed…

@BrianPaine says:

GM has shit valve body in new Transmission thats why so many are failing.

@MultiTazmo says:

People keep buying vehicles that are built to create profits for the upper management. Chevy had a truck with the same body from 76-87 with minor grill changes. Now they change the body every few years because god forbid you dont have the newest body style. People will think your poor. Took them into the 2000s to learn that. Now every car manufacturers instead of running a bady for 8 years its 3-4

@stevecaton1595 says:

They wouldn't be problematic, if people serviced their transmission when it's supposed to be done. Don't wait until you reach 80k miles and the transmission fluid is black and your transmission is giving you problems. Nobody changes their transmission fluid and filter until the transmission starts giving them problems, and nobody ever changes the diff oil, or the transfer case fluid, until the gears start banging, universal 's are banging and speaking, back and front differential 's are banging and whining. Transmission's and diff's are the most neglected parts of the drive train.

@Tony-ps9qk says:

This pan will NOT stop this issue. It is a design flaw/cheap parts. You can change the fluid daily and it will still fail

@okymek says:

CarGuyOnline has a great interview covering this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rU8_hyuIVzI

@hawkeyetec says:

What about a trans cooler the size of the radiator? Single core?

Since the manufacturers forgot about durability and affordability.

@PonchoTech says:

Is the ford hd gaser and diesel 10spd transmission the same as this "Allison" trans?

@kevinmcnabb168 says:

Stupid design with no plug
