Good to see an old member lol. I haven't been on there since the server change. My profle got lost and that also when my tranny blew and I abandoned the forum(was a sad day, great forum). Ya the pressure valve in the ax4s is made of aluminum, which isn't good seeing as that tranny tends to run a little hot. It is the most common failure. Also an expensive repair, depends on the shop. It should be replaced with a steel one, I don't believe aluminum ones are available anymore. It also doesn't help that the vulcan was originally designed for the Ranger then sloppily mated to the ax4s. The ax4n was properly designed to handle the vulcan power. Isn't much on today's standards but more than enough to get it moving quick like.
