86 xj6 rebuilt trans slipping.
So my original Borg Warner on my 86 xj6 series 3 died and I found a "rebuilt" one on eBay a while back for $150 from someone who purchased it to replace the one in their car, but ended up lumping the car instead... So the trans looked like a ligitamit rebuild due to the way things were sealed and there were new gaskets installed. I purchased a new torque converter and put in new fluild an adjusted the bands after the first drive. I adjusted the kick down cable and everything worked perfectly fine for 2 months maybe 500-1000 miles max. Now the trans slips after about 2 minutes. If I let it cool for a day I get just a little bit a grab before it acts like it is in neutral. I am out of ideas and really don't want to pull the trans again if I don't have to.
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

wow I am sorry to hear about the tans trouble you're having =\ I know how much work it is replacing one... ALOT! I've had to do it before, I cant Imagine having to do it twice.
have you checked the shift linkage to make sure that's all still tight?
other than that and double checking the bands I don't know what else to tell you. I hope its not a bum tranny you got. hopefully others will jump in with better advice than mine soon, there are far more knowledgeable members than I.
