New Transmission Question

Has anyone had any experience with ATS transmission components? I am considering buying their transmission and TQ with Commander and would like to know if anyone else has had or know anyone who has used their products. Although this would make the 3rd trans in this truck, it's now less expensive than a new truck.
The coverage on the new trans. is very good! (3years/100,000Mils.
Thanks

My son-in-law has their high performance torque (7.3 diesel) converter in his transmission and their 4" headers and exhaust system. I too had their big exhaust in my previous 01 F350 as well as their ported turbo housing. They make good performance parts and stand behind their products.

I understand that they make great stuff little steep in price but good stuff, they will bill you for core charge as well till you get yours back to them. Another good source is Brian's Transmission Shop in Arkansas, they do the same as ATS. Look at post at Deiselstop.com

Thanks for the input folks. Ya, they are a little steep in price but the warranty is one of the best I've seen and haven't seen anything bad about their products yet.

I have the Gear-Vender added transmission on my F-250 gas, gives me additional gears for mountains as well as running in O/D @ 500RPM's. I would not be without it on any truck I will get.

I meant to say 1500 RPM's in O/D and that is on flat lands.

1500 sounds much better! I was thinking WOW I don't think I want a Gear-Vender in my truck. (RPMs just a tad high at 5000)
Thanks Bill for the input.
