Anyone ever hear of/use this stuff? It's supposed to create more pressure and make your truck shift a bit harder.

yes i did notice a difference.. it really firmed it up.. the ford anything really are notorius for crappy trannies.. and the first gen explorers were really bad... i put the regular trick shift in at 60k and it still has it in htere with areound 110k now... never had a problem at all and it helped out tremendously, especially with my hard driving style

I've been doing performance transmission work for a long time and my advise is stay away- with any vehicle, but especially in a Toyota application that has totally different requirements for its ATF.

I definitely don't recommend the use of Trick Shift.
