I go through the Transgo AODE-3 full manual shift kit. I didn’t get to do a full on tutorial just because I wanted to make sure I didn’t lose my concentration to where I was at the installation. I would recommend making sure your measurements are spot on for the drilling of the transmission case. I explain in the video why!!

Did you ever hook up the vacuum modulator to vacuum reference? My Silver Fox Racing manual valve body did not come with a vacuum modulator like yours did. Evidently the EPC solenoid stays in place, but the circuit board that goes to it is cut off. I’m kind of confused on this one.

Yes I did, but didn’t get to go crazy with it because a few pulls later I lost 3rd gear sadly I think I drove too long without it and may have caused the failure. Currently swapping in a 5 speed..

Is this safer than just manually shifting the 4r70w? (96 Tbird LX, 73k miles) It definitely seems faster shift-wise, but I worry about the wear from forcing the gears into place.
@forcefedhatch
@forcefedhatch 2 жыл бұрын
It truly depends on the application, if you race it or do a lot of spirited driving then yes this is the way to go for faster firmer shifts. If you like the transmission shifting for you then this is not the way to go. This makes the transmission full manual.

is it correct that if the vacuum modulator is not hooked up, you just have full pressure all the time? Were you able to get your vacuum connected? And if one had a high stall converter, would it even matter?

Yes, overdrive is electronically controlled on the 4r70w, you wire in a toggle switch to engage the overdrive and the torque converter lockup.. the wiring instructions for those are included in the kit.

To shift in 4th gear do you need to turn O/D on and to leave 4th back off again with that trans ?
@forcefedhatch
@forcefedhatch 2 жыл бұрын
4th is overdrive, once the ground circuit is activated on ss1 and ss2 and it’s in 3rd gear, the O/D band engagement happens. Then if you want to lock the torque converter you ground that circuit as well, but!!! Never shift gears with the converter locked!! It will break the 2 piece input shaft!! Disengage the lockup, then shift gears. I never use lockup unless on the highway with O/D engaged.

Hey I have a 1997 mercury cougar xr7 4.6 2v. I wanted to do a shift kit so I get that sweet Chirp into second and manual control. Seeing as manual swap will be a load of bs. How is driveablity and is 4th still useable?? Also is there any specific kit you would reccomend for this. I'm having a shop do my work, but idk what I want yet.
@forcefedhatch
@forcefedhatch Жыл бұрын
Great questions! For this kit yes you would need to wire it up for 4th/OD to work. It would shift into 3rd then from 3rd you would flip the switch for OD. And yes you can go down to other gears easily and smooth as long as the vacuum modulator is installed it will be smooth. Mine doesn’t have it hooked up so the shifts are rough and ultimately my trans being high mileage doesn’t help either. In your case I would recommend doing a J-mod on the transmission, swapping rear gears, and enjoying that way you don’t forget or get tired of manual shifting and you will get that crisp chirp you want as well!

@@forcefedhatch is there any in-between? Like would the jmod kit make dropping it into first while cruising smoother? I want to beable to use the selector when I want, safely, and have that sweet Chirp. If this is the only good way to have that reliable manual shifts its probably what I will do. I can forget about automatically shifting. I had a dual clutch vw. Never used drive and absolutely hated the automatic downshifts while using selctor, but if there is anything that will allow me to downshift smoothly and safely while still being able to use drive, that's what I'm looking for but I don't know enough about these kits or how they work. Right now the car loves dropping into second with a bit of gas. It's honestly smoother than the upshifts sometime, but it hates 1st, even if im going 5 mph and drop it into 1st it jerks around. I really just want to eliminate that, and have the sweet 1-2 chirp.
@forcefedhatch
@forcefedhatch Жыл бұрын
@@readylucas sounds like you have some shutter from the 2-1 shift. This would eliminate a lot of that yes, but it also could be in the torque converter or in the lockup function in the ECU. Example: trans wants to engage torque converter lockup in 2nd or even 3rd, but has to disengage before it makes a shift in either direction so it doesn’t snap the input shaft itself or the lockup shaft. So engaging and disengagement can create that “shutter, or hesitation” during that time. Also the 4r70w and the AODE transmissions are notorious for that shutter from the converter itself.
@forcefedhatch
@forcefedhatch Жыл бұрын
I never engage lockup unless it’s on the highway. And even then i have it wired up that if I disengage my OD it grounds out and disengages the lockup at the same time to prevent input shaft damage.

The ECU is fine, the O/D light will flash because it’s saying something isn’t connected, and obviously the shift solenoids are not lol,but the trans still is connected for fluid temperature, and speed sensor input. So everything still works as it should other than the shifts being controlled by the ECU.
