He commented that the band is .0040 thick when new, which seems reasonably thick to me.
Has anyone noticed what kind of wear there is on the band when a trans has been rebuilt at 80-100K? Or had a premature fry of the band after adjusting?

That's a really good question. And how weird that, after weeks of not being on the network, I come back to see one of my 14-month-old threads revived.
I'll see everybody in another few days - my first day at my new job is Tuesday - woohoo!
