I took my 95 to a quick lube place years ago and had the trans flushed, I didn't have time to drop the pan and change the filter. I had to have it rebuilt within 2 weeks.

Corb I think my brother is coming to help us too. Hopefully we can get you back on the road pretty quick.

Pimp. Do we need anything special? Ill dig my jack and jack stands out of storage, or Ill just go buy new ones... mine were for something a bit lighter... LOL We can prob get her done in my office parking lot... That would save us having to move it anywhere... As that is where it coasted to a stop last night...

And no reverse, BTW... Mike and I talked, and figured it was direct drive... but, she wont move either direction...
Props to you man!

100% agreed here!

Yeah, the 71 hits pretty hard. I am on the 275 EL from spartan, and I was on the same tune when I rolled into Rudy's. WOW What a difference. And 200 + degrees cooler EGTs...

Precisely! And thank you.

As it turns out, my experiment on "How long can a factory trans, with a more than moderate tune last?" Well, we found the answer... 125, 400 miles... But 124, 300 was on the stock fluid..... Tuned at 52,000..... LOL

I don't have a tranny jack but I can bring my floor jack and a block of wood.... we can do it where ever you want. If its cool to work on it where it sets it will be easier. I will text you later, sounds like the dogs are headed to me, maybe I will kill a deer today...lol

Ready to go in the morning! And Aaron has me set up with a trans and TC (hopefully) next week. All looks ok, amidst the storm... LOL

Can't seem to locate a trans adapter.... but a block of wood and a few guys should to the trick! All we are going to need is a dude with no legs, holding a beer, yelling, "Hey ya'll, watch this!"

Oh, wait a minute..... we already have that.... "Check"......

Things like this are one of the few reasons why I believe there are still good people in this world that will do something out of the kindness of their heart and not for other reasons..
