Here'* a few pics of my magnet placement:




It'* been 350 miles since I installed them.

I, HONESTLY can say that it seems to be shifting better. It'* not just me imagining things, or wanting to believe that it'* shifting better. At this point, I'm convinced they're working. Unfortunately I probably won't pull the pan to check the effectiveness. I'll just leave them on until the trans is totally done. Save that money and put it toward the rebuild.

wow.... not knocking it or anything but dont ya think thats a little bit overkill there???

i can understand 2 maybe 3 magnets... but if you fear having that much metal shavings floating around your tranny then theres probs...

but hey you shoulda made a huge smiley face or something like that outa them@!!!

I got nothing to loose at this point! Besides, what else am I going to do with the excess magnets?

Holy **** Mark

your tranny needs this!!

Yep, that'* about how I imagined it Mark. So you were having tranny issues then? Because I started to get issues several weeks ago. I pulled the pan, did the fluid/filter and ordered these magnets. So far I haven't noticed the same exact TCC issues lately. Though I'm still having the same shifting issues at one certain point, though it'* pretty sporadic.

I'll probably be pulling my pan in a few weeks again to try and get even more old fluid out. I'll be sure to take pics.

Yes. My transmission has been slipping for about a year. It'* getting progressively worse - especially during city driving. The shifts between first and second and second and third were getting real mushy. After installing the magnets, the shift between first and second has gotten a lot stiffer. Second to third isn't all that hot, but a little better. If the $10 spent on the magnets nets me three extra months out of the tranny, I'm a happy man! With 170,000 miles on the car with the original tranny (and never had a flush), I've got NOTHING to complain about. She'* done her duty.

I'm glad your shifts seem to be getting better from these magnets! My first to second is very mushy and slow sometimes, but that'* when I'm at or close to WOT, which is not very often at all. Maybe I should get more magnets for my pan!

Let'* not run around screaming "all hail the magnets and their magical ability to cure trans issues" If the magnets helped..that must have meant that there was a LOT of metal particles jambing up the internals.

That'* all I'm assuming these have done Bill, just grabbing a lot of the crap that would otherwise get back into the trans. At 170K with no flush Mark probably has a good amount.
