S4D S5D

[SeanRitchie]

Sean@Weddle We appreciate the transparancy! How about the R&P situation for a PBS? I've patiently been waitiing for my trans shop to get one to finish my re-build. Thanks

PBS R&P is the same as our S4/S5. These are still 3-4 months out on the ETA list. Oldest backorders are filled first.

Note about the R&P situation:

We have received a limited number of 4.63 and 4.88 for S4D/S5D. We were not super happy with the outcome of the tooth contacts on the ones that we initially set up in house. We decided to run patterns on every R&P set that we received, which took about a week and a half. There are a few that are definitely no good and will be scrapped. The others are questionable, but might run ok, they might be a little noisy on decelerations. The questionable sets might be offered to builders if they want to run them knowing they could be a little noisy. We have not yet reached the point of releasing any of these yet as we are still working to decide if we want to release less than standard quality parts.

Keep in mind that every trans is being supplied by the date it was ordered. We received a limited number of R&P sets and will only fulfill orders based on date they were ordered by the builder. We have orders dating back to November of 2020 at this time, and there are lots of them in between. 

We do apologize for the long wait time on all of our units. Please understand that we have dealt with a lot of unprecedented delays and high volume of sales this year that we could never have anticipated. We are doing everything we can to remedy the situation, but there are only still so many parts that can be made in a given amount of time.

Thanks for understanding. 

If the pattern is a little off, will REM polishing help, and breaking in the ring and pinon on a dyno under no load help, like a rear end on a passenger vehicle is done,

None of the above will really help these. It's more of an issue with how the teeth distorted in heat treat. Not much that can be done to fix the bad ones.
