My philosophy has always been if it isn't broken, don't fix it. So if the transmission is still in good working order, I would give it a service (fluid & filter change, band adjustment) and continue running it; this assumes it has not been serviced recently. If you discover excessive clutch material or other 'trash' in the pan when you do a service, it may be time to consider a rebuild. My $0.02 -S/6 |

Adding a mild shift kit will help some too. You don't want it to shift so hard that it bangs your head on the dash though. I have one in my 85 Chevy pickup (in it when I got it) and it shifts HARD. It'll bark the tires on the 1-2 shift but it gets pretty annoying after a while. |
