Just took out the Juice and installed the Predator. First reactions:

Man the tranny doesn't know what the he** to do! Getting better though.

Power in 1st gear is MUCH better, overall power seems lower, but only running 65 hp now compared to level 3 on the attitude.

Mileage is better, averaged 18.1 mpg on a 610 mile trip running 75 most of the time.

Power delivery seems smoother, it just goes, doesn't have that extra kick the Juice does. It's just always there when you step on it.

No hiccups, burps, farts, whatever! Truck drives like stock, just much faster!

And YOU GOTTA LOVE GETTING RID OF THE SPEED LIMITER!!!! :ro)

So I now have a Juice box for sale, not ready to stack em yet, need tranny work.

Keep th OJ! You will get the tranny done and then you will want to add more power anyways. The tranny upgrade is great. More power to the ground.

IC you are located in Bozeman. I am in Miles City. How is the snow fall? My buddy lives in Butte and I go elk hunting with him every year.

We're finally starting to get some snow now. but not nearly as much as we need.
I figure it will be next fall before I can upgrade the tranny, by then something newer and better will be out in the power department, and I will "JUST HAVTA HAVIT!"
