the loose bolts are the ones that hold the valve body to the case. He said everything looked good in the trans except for the 1 cracked pressure plate. He said it would need what he called a "soft rebuild" and everything would need to be cleaned. The cooler I run is 12 x 14 and I have it running through the radiator then through the cooler. My engine temps are normally 180-190 I have 185 T-stat.




The guy is an if he is trying to tell you them being finger tight is ok. I actually have a gasket between the VB and case in my 2000 Ram 47RE to help against the pressure loss, is it needed , probably not but my trans still works well behind my hot rod Cummins 127k miles later.
