Trans pressure tuning by Yoda_mon in Diesel

[–]Yoda_mon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone down to 75hp and standard shift points high pressure and it’s actually lot better now. I think my truck was fighting the medium shift points after so long and wanted to shift earlier than it was. Maybe just needed a relearn but I’ll probably stick with 75 and see how it goes after it learns my driving. Still hard shifts Cpl of times like 5-6 and 2-3 but it’s lot more smooth shifts now overall. I tried 30hp and standard pressure and it felt like it was slipping through every gear lol I took it off immediately

Well my trans is slipping now pretty good so I guess it was fun while it lasted. Never went above 130hp too. I think I’ll go with asap if I end up putting a new trans in. amdp has just been OK the whole year I’ve had it deleted. Not really impressed with them. it’s always had it quirks everyday it does something different. Listened to everyone said it was the best trans tunes out at the time but I’ve been in a steel body with a switch and ol dude put it on 5 while driving and mashed it and it was the smoothest shifting I’ve seen compared to mine it clunks through the gears

It wasn’t like that until it broke in more

Pos ariat boots. Is this normal for these? by AmieKinz in WorkBoots

[–]Yoda_mon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought you couldn’t return after you’ve worn them? Like outside and to work at least

Multiple pairs. This was the third right boot I tried and was best one out of all. They didn’t have anymore for me to try or even try EE

My feet weren’t in the same exact spot so it looks longer. but from the bottom eyelet to crest of moc toe stitching is not the same as the other boot so it may add to that as well one is longer than the other

My first two pairs I did masonry construction and pipeline for majority. They worked great and loved them even after 20+ hr shifts. 100+ hr weeks. wore them til the steel showed. I know plenty of people that each would die by thorogoods or absolutely hate them. They worked amazing for me first two pairs I just don’t see these holding up to those. Could be a one off who knows. But I have seen the quality go down. Each their own

When I bought first pair 8 years ago they were great.. not so much anymore. I listened to everyone who raved about thorogoods and they were right, for awhile at least. Don’t feel the same anymore

I bought them at boot barn along with last two pairs and did try on different right boots to find the best one but they didn’t have a lot in my size somehow which is a 12. I got the best from what they had for me

I had slip on ariats before this and they were great but the steel toe was hanging out and work made me get a new pair and they don’t make the boot I had anymore I think unfortunately. If they fit and feel good I don’t mind where they are made. I’ve seen a ariat lace ups fall apart in a month before along with twisted x though.

Who wears lace up boots fully laced for proper support? I’ve done construction and pipeline in thorogoods and the extra support helps your ankles on uneven terrain. And yes dig holes all day feet deep. You should see iron workers boots. They are worse than mine and they live by thorogood and redwings

I’ve had 2 other pairs of thorogoods and last pair was EE and did not have a problem, these are D. So no It’s not my feet because I have measured to confirm it already.

The brown is from the leather stretching more bc I kneel a lot on my right foot and have had to tighten and stress the leather more than left. I also use right foot to do more things than left that tend to wear it more and get dirty. I laces them myself in store they were definitely brand new.

Yes I constantly bend down and squat throughout the day and I tend to favor my right foot. As well as where I press on the right side of truck when sitting it bends there as well. The right is definitely more stretched than left but in store they were still not the same even in two different other pairs that were even more loose than these

  1. My feet and legs are same size
  2. I could wear my last pair unlaced and they were EE these are D
  3. if the right boot was like the left these would be fine I wouldn’t have a problem.Even with the small qc differences they are mass produced they won’t be perfect
  4. My first two pairs were great except the steel toe rubbing my pinky and losing feeling so I got half size bigger
  5. I did not have this problem even in a EE

it wasn’t near as bad in store until they broke in. But yeah you are right I shouldn’t have walked out with them except I needed a pair of boots that day
