mustang tranny?

[DarkestGKnight]

If it's slipping and you have a leak it's just best to have it rebuilt

low fluid will make it slip, BUT once it starts to slip it burns the clutches and will tear the tranny up in a hurry.

yeah so best bet is to get it rebuilt i might want to sell it tho casue im 17 no job and tranny work is so much money, thanks for the help

[oldsking86]

well if that be the case, try to fix the leak.. when you put tranny fluid, put some Lucas trans fluid, it helps with leaks, and def with the slipping problem. I have used their products on all my vehicles, regular and race and love it! works awesome

[DarkestGKnight]

see the thing is when it has fluid it wont slip when it dont it does thats y im thinking its a gasket./

where is it leaking from? if it is leaking from a front or rear seal . drop the tranny and buy new seals for it. or if you drive it like a pi$$ed off teenager check all the lines you could have blowen a cooling line. if so repalce them. both are failry cheep to fix. is can a b@tch to drop a tranny.

don't tear it up man.fix it right.also it's a auto from a 5.0 liter?if so you can buy parts,or a replacement tranny cheap enough.

try the corral.net,or stangnet.com for parts
