Yea, all the 5 and 6 speeds A1000 trans can't hold much past 400rwhp. I would highly recommend removing the tune when you tow, it adds a ton of stress to the clutches and once you slip it once, its on its way out.

A rebuild is like any other auto trans rebuild, new clutches,upgrade to a triple disc converter and upgraded servos/valves. The also fix the pump rub issue with causes the transfer cause fluid to leak out over time and when you shift into 4x4 it dies on you. Usually will cost you ~$4-5k installed, check out Mike L @ Inglewoods trans, or George @ Big Dipper. The latter is in MD so not a huge drive and you avoid shipping a 300# trans.
