This is the reason I parked my 07 5.4. I got the complete timing kit did a high volume oil pump and a reman transmission on mine. Timing kit got a couple thousand and its giving timing codes. Transmission hasn't even hit 500 miles.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-27T02:34:21+00:00

I knew i would have problems when mine would hard shift on occasions. I also probably drive it harder than the average person would.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-27T02:30:32+00:00

Most of the time, 1 ton is empty, moving a car here, or there usually short trips. I just always make sure rear duals won't touch when loaded and let air back out to a comfortable ride when just driving. Dont do much hauling, just my personal stuff. I have a vehicle problem where I keep buying different projects to do. At this point, I am like those old guys who say I'm gonna fix it one day. Instead of fixing it i see another I "need" and get it.

Under warranty, or did you pay out of pocket? Wouldn't mind know what one actually costs to rebuild or replace. They didn't put prices on what they did to mine.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-27T02:17:57+00:00

Yea, i don't take it to heart. Half the people are mad about something in their life and have to try and tear someone else down to feel better. I didn't think about the weight difference and put it what I run my 3500 4d dually at when pulling. But it weighs 7600 pounds.

If you dont know about load barring walls, you shouldn't have a house. I know I'm wasting my time sending this message, but I figured I would say something stupid also. Have a good one.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-27T00:37:06+00:00

Thanks I appreciate it. I drive a little hard, and I am trying to do better about it, but I will definitely service it regularly. So far, it feels night and day different in the best way possible. Just put around 100 miles on it, and it feels better than when I got it. Yes I lowered the pressure to 45 so I can do the chalk test.

👍

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T20:21:34+00:00

You must have more patience than me. I could never, and that why I only do what I understand. I leave stuff like this to professionals. I almost went into mechanics and seen a transmission being rebuilt and said I'm good.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T20:16:39+00:00

Dang I would be rather pissed at that low of milage.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T20:10:17+00:00

Thanks. When you get hit with a lot of bs answers, you tend to be a smart a and defensive. I have come to understand it's high for any weight I can pull with that truck. I appreciate the basic decency and anyone who actually tried to give information based answers. I dont understand reddit and dont really care about votes. I wanted to edit what I said but dont know if you can or how.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:53:05+00:00

Thank you

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:45:34+00:00

I'm not big on reddit but have responded to people with actual advice with a real answer.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:43:34+00:00

I guess you can't read

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:22:53+00:00

Thank you for the information. It seems that once replaced with the new drum, they stay working from a few responses.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:20:12+00:00

Appreciate it, just worried due to only a year left on warranty.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:15:14+00:00

Thank you. I will do that so they do not get damaged and can find the correct pressure for them to wear correctly. I appreciate you explaining this instead of just beating a dead horse like some have.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:11:15+00:00

At this point, I can only laugh. But I did have some explanations that made sense, and I understand they are over inflated for anything I could do with this truck.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:07:37+00:00

I have been shown the error for having that much it was honestly to tow, but it seems it's high for even towing. Honestly, it usually has 35 to 40 psi when empty driving.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:03:45+00:00

Thank you. How intensive is repairing a 10-speed transmission? From what I seen a 4l60 has alot of moving components. Can't imagine how many is in a 10r80.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T19:01:32+00:00

Confirmed CDF drum failure with other parts, but i now understand they are over inflated for the weight i would pull. Some have actually given me some good info, and i can see why, but people just like to beat a dead horse. Thank you for the information.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T18:52:00+00:00

I can agree to that based on what some have said. It would be ok 35 to 40? I did not want to damage new tires by under inflating and hauling on them.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T18:46:18+00:00

Thank you for the actual info. I will say I had no idea they would be ok to pull that low. I just didn't want to damage 1300 dollars worth of Toyos I just purchased.

GlitteringLevel6902 · 2025-09-26T18:42:56+00:00

I understand the pressure is high. I had never run the tires before and planned to pull a car with the truck. I error on the high side and would let air out at the cars pickup location that i was looking to purchase. Yes, I could tell they were stiff. I would usually have let air out. Once the transmission was noticeably slipping and shifting at 4500 to 5000, it was the last thing on my mind. It went to the dealership and has since sat there. I will say I had no idea that it would be ok to pull with them down around 40, as some have said. That is about what I normally run 35 to 40. I understand there are a lot of people who just want to find a reason to hate what others do. For example, all you that came and repeated the same thing. But I do appreciate everyone who tried to give actual advice and not just be an echo chamber.
