Pros and Cons 2004r Vs.700r4
I'm looking for the cold hard facts on what good and bad about the 2004r and 700r4 transmissions, in stock form.
so far this is what I've got
700r4:
Pro:
overdrive, low first gear, removable tail-housing, torque arm mount, low first gear, plenty of cores available.
cons:
big jump from first to second, finicky TV cables, no WOT 4th gear.
2004r:
Pro:
smaller jump from first to second, higher overdrive, and WOT 4th gear IIRC.
cons:
no torque arm mount, pan drop to change speedo gear, finicky TV cable.
anything I'm missing?
Thanks-
Eric
