JB Transmissions

So as We're still hearing about the valve body issues. I know the torque converters can fail as well and whether you're tuned or not tuned it doesn't matter. The transmissions just have issues. So let's discuss ways you can kind of help. I would call it bullet proof your transmission. So here it is. I probably purchased three weeks ago? I can't remember now. And it was on back order. So then I guess they were able to get my order fulfilled and then t So t Now obviously if you guys have ever seen the Pan on the 10L1000, it's I believe al So at the end of the day the enemy of any transmission, any engine is obviously heat. So if you're trying to prolong the life of any equipment on your truck, t Whether you look at their oil pan, their diff cover, banks is always trying to find ways to cool those systems, especially if you're someone who goes off-road or if you tow heavy often. These the manufacturers have a budget. Let's go and open t All right, here we go. Let'see. There we go. Nice. One thing I All right, let me go ahead and put the camera down so Wow, look at that. And here it is. So directions are right there. Here's all your hardware and a nice license plate bracket and there it is. Look at all the cooling in here. You see these cooling elements work with these cool elements. So that's really nice panaceous. T Die cast. So you have that smooth surface on the inside. They build really good stuff. Now here's the banks solution for cooling. So they add t When I looked at it online I thought it was going to be So the way that banks dubs this is going to scoop air to help cool this transmission because as So there's really no way for this to be able to have cooling without having something So let's go ahead and open it online. So I'm going to have my boy Josh and truckstuff install t Before we get started let me go ahead and answer t Will the short answer is no because how can a pan void your entire warranty on your truck? T How can that? It's impossible. However if for any reason t So if you have t It's impossible. Now that pan would have to fail but how Always remember t So if you don't know they pay a different hourly rate and they pay less hours. So yes those dirty dealers They're the ones who are trying to get you to believe that your warranty is void now. So don't go to those dealers Get a good relations Now obviously dealers So that'somet Now one of the main reasons why I purchased t So it takes me about 45 minutes to get to they're building a So I'm starting to see my transmissing temperatures get over 180 from my house till I get to the Now obviously once those temperatures creep up they don't really come down too much because there's really no air flowing around that transmission. I mean from what I can see on the underbody of my truck GM has not developed somet And that's what I really The first t So t It's not as porous as sand cast and it's a lot smoother internally too and I The scoop that they give you is pretty much acting as a forced induction system for your transmission. As I said earlier GM does not incorporate any cooling to get there to cool that transmission. So t And that's the 100% reason why I purchased t Now some of the key features that Banks claims that t So obviously it's gonna cost you more obviously to do your services but the good news is I t Sometimes if you're doing severe duty you might have to stick to the manufacturer's recommendations but that should help with heat right and it's gonna give you a little bit longer service interval. The next they're claiming 123% more heat absorption surface area than stock. 134% more cooling surface area than stock. So yes at the end of the day with everyt Now most of They also do racing as well and that's another t So not only do these things have to be reliable they actually have to stay in service longer without being down to get these services done so that's one thing I Now obviously I t So it says here these fins maximize thermal energy transfer by lining up the internal absorption and external radiator elements with each other. Transmission fluid heat is effectively drawn from the fluid reducing stress on your Duramax cooling and lubrication system. So again when you that truck is rated a tow in a certain configuration up to what 37,000 pounds w So yes let's go ahead and take a quick peek at the factory pan. So hopefully So if you don't have an AEV addition t So just keep that in mind and Last t
