i have a 4x4 blazer and i am a little unsatisfied with its performance
i am already planning a few engine mods.
but i think a new transmission is in order.
i have the shift on the fly transfer case(although i wish i hadn't)
and i am curious what my options are in the transmission department.
can i put a better transmission in my truck.
if so where can i find one.
thanks yall

First off Hello. Try Summit Racing and see if they have any tranny kits available.
I have a 4 speed slush box like many here that I'm going to fool with. I ordered an electronic shift improver and attempting to get firmer shifts.
Good Luck and tread heavily!

Yeah, they have all the goodies. I'm waiting for my transmisission toys too.
I went though some "archived" posts and found even part numbers guys put on their threads. I ordered my stacked cooler through Autoz...
Post some pics on this thread and share whether you're satisfied with what you have. I'm gonna but not until it warms up, still 25 F during the day.

Instead of getting a shift kit try a Hypertech programmer 111. THey are really good and change firmness and rpm shift points. I got mine on ebay for half of what they sell for. Just make sure that it was set back to stock when buying on ebay.

Fooling the tranny isn't anything like rebuilding it with better parts.

I should be doing a final write up on it here soon.
I will say this. Amazing.
