    Allison 1545 Automatic Transmission Specs

    tobyS, did you end getting your torque convertor updated? Who did you find out to do the work? I am more than likely taking my truck to the local Allison shop to have them look at it. I don't have the space to keep a inoperable truck nor any easy way to remove it.

I bought ceramic H4 sockets, a HID wiring for making an extension, 24v relays to power the HID's with 12v, and a set...
