700r4 question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I got the trans installed but I need a good troubleshooting site. When I drive it shifts late and hard I still have alot of room for adjustment. I know if it is too loose it will shift quick and soft. Any help would be great.

Sounds like TV cable adjustment to me too. Swore mine was going to put me in a neck brace until I found out what was going on.

These folks built my tranny. http://www.bowtieoverdrives.com/index.shtml

They also have a great write up on adjusting the TV cable.

TCI just came out with a new valve body for 700r4 that makes adjustment of tv cable much less critical. It keeps line pressure up and only uses the tv for down shifting. Check it out...http://tciauto.com/WhatsNew/Files/TC...eValveBody.pdf
