Hi good stuff so I assume I can use the trans stick in my 300 CRD since its a damiler/chrysler engine, so its just take the cap off the trans tube and shove the dipstick in?

[prican_2000]

Awesome information - Thanks!!!!!!

[JonW]

Any good online sources for these?

[MagnumManAWD]

Will the blue top solenoids cause future problems down the road with the added line pressure, and does the tranny need more fluid to compensate?

I haven't had any problems. Downshifts are firmer. Normal fluid fill procedure (and volume) with the above mentioned DB measuring stick.

Any part numbers for the paddle shifters?

You can up the shift firmness with a simple, yet effective, pred tuner :)
