if you guys with grinding have the evo9, do you guys have the evo8 4th gear or evo9 4th gear? and also plz specify if you've got an 8 or 9 if its not listed in your info

 

This is Great!!!
FML. Love throwing money in the garbage. I paid all this money so i dont have to look at my tranny ever again.. 4Th Gear grind here.. Can't even enjoy the car the way it's supposed to..

 

6speed difference is different from the 5 speed service though - what kind of driving is the car seeing?

 

I Have a 5 Speed swap in the car.

The car is being daily driven on stock boost levels and stock tune.

Been to the track once.

 

scary. what fluid are you using?

 

You ask a question, get the answer multiple times, and then call it BS?

 

mine felt really bad in the beginning actually.. feels great now, better than stock. forget how many miles but no grinds or anything to speak of

 

Man, this stuff is getting scary. I just got my transmission back from sheptrans. Got everything back together, and fluid levels back to where they need to be. Took it for a drive. Within two miles, i had a loud whine. Sounds like it is coming from the transfer case. Didnt have a problem before. Really hope its not the trans tho.

 

Did you put fluid in the Tcase?? lol

 

I didn't ask any questions.......search on the forums and you will see this isn't the only thread about this.

Maybe I should have asked questions then I might have not had to have the tranny rebuilt a 2nd time and would have had it done right the first time.

Yes I call it BS....If it is built right you shouldn't have to "Baby into 5th gear so that it doesn't grind" "Use a special tranny fluid so that it doesn't grind or mess up the tranny" "Use only Exedy twin or tripple disk clutches cause all other clutches SUCK".

But it's ok now I have my Jack's tranny with my CRAPPY carbonetics twin and it shift perfect everytime

 

I have a Shep trans wired thing it grinds 3rd gear bad just sitting still in the driveway not moving at all I have a exert tripple and I adjusted the clutch just how jacks transmission says to is the Trans my problem or could it be my clutch I think if it was the clutch it would do it every gear correct someone please help me

 

need some input on this guys bump

 

Bump it up

 

for those with a 5th gear grind are you experiencing this when shifting fast into 5th?
Is this on an evo 8 trans or a 9 trans?

For those with a 4th grind did you have an 9 and go to an 8 4th gear then get the grind?

Thanks,

Actually yes you do need to break in a tranny or t-case. All the bearings are fresh and need to bed in before seeing abuse. I have a Shep trans and T-case and they both work PERFECTLY.

My first clutch with the Shep trans was an Exedy twin HD. POS. Went bad in less than 3k miles. And yes, I do know how to drive and it was installed correctly. A few launches and it was done one night at the track.

Moving on....Every builder is gonna SUGGEST a certain fluid. FP says not to use Mobil 1 oil while running their turbo's. I think I'm gonna listen when a professional tells me something about their OWN PRODUCT!

Shep has been in the game for a long time and has built reputation. All the fastest EVO's run his trans for a reason. I know there are other good trans builders out there. I'm just sayin.....

My Shep trans has been wonderful and worked like a dream since DAY ONE. I'm close to 33k miles on my trans. I've lauched the **** out of my car numerous times. The only thing I have changed is I switched back to Diaqueen for my Shep t-case. I use Redline MT90 with one quart of lightweight shockproof in the trans. The trans has been smooth since the first night I picked the car up. I had the new clutch at the time so I had to break that in so that served as break in for the trans as well.

So before you go talking crap about someone who is well deserving of credit think twice. Its great that you have a Jack trans that works for you...awesome. I'm not saying that Shep build a perfect trans EVERY time but he stands behind his work.
