tranny is slipping bad. i have mods done, so i need good transmission to handle everything, does anyone know what all i should get or should i just buy whole new tranny, not rebuild it

youll have to let me know how it works out, im new to transmissions. never done my homework yet, i have turbo and injector mods, of course thats whats causing tranny to slip terribly lol. i have to drive 6 hrs the 23rd tho, wonder if valve body will help me for the time being or you think i should do more?

i would do a valve body trans fluid flush new filter with synthetic fluid and possibly a new torque converter

I don't believe anybody makes a upgraded valve body for the 5R110W trans. We have solenoids that can be upgraded.

Check out Suncoast Transmissions.

Like Lilpooh says below the 5R110 is a whole different animal than the 4R100 that's in your Land Yacht. We don't have a valve body like you do. John Woods makes a nice valve body but you might want to check into the Factory Tech valve body for the 4R100. He makes 2 different versions. A HP version that firms up the shifts real nicely and a race version that makes your fillings fly out when it shifts. I had a Factory Tech in my Supercharged 02 Harley F150 and liked it a lot.

Yup there are upgrade solenoids like Doug's at gogo diesel. I would just buy a new tanny from NADP or BTS if it was me. I'm not real impressed with Suncoast or ATS stuff.

how much would it run for an upgraded solenoid?..

meaning its probably not going to help, you mean i should probably just go ahead and buy a new transmission. forget trying to piece together solenoids or torque converters...i have a feeling thats what i should probably do instead lol
