Decided since I've gotten all practiced up at pulling the tranny I'm gonna go ahead and put the "new" one in. Can't hurt. I'll only be out $20 in Wal-Mart tranny fluid anyway.

So until I get ambitious tomorrow to put it in, I'm gonna do some RPO code research.

Got my "new" tranny in today. Still need to hook up the detent cable and get one new bolt for the rear U-joint strap. Tranny's been sitting for 8 years so I started her up and let it run to circulate the fluid back onto the clutches. More pictures, vids and updates tomorrow.

Denied! Tranny holds in first til it's wound out then slides into third. Guy gave me a gaurantee that it would work. I'll find out tomorrow whether or not he's gonna honor it or not. I did get a chance to drive the truck around though and find out what it has and needs. Really doesn't need anything other than the brakes bled. Drives nice and smooth, lots of power, all the lights work, etc. Still on the fence as to fix it & keep it or trade it off (fixed or not).

Take it back, TAKE IT BACK!!! loll

I found a guy who's got a rebuilt one he wants to trade me for my 3 bad ones so I'll probably end up just doing that. Assuming this tranny's legit and not some 300,000 mile S-10 take out with the wrong tailshaft bolt pattern or something crazy like that. Would be just my luck! loll

Well got my tranny in. Rebuilt by Jeremy Sheperd of Affordable Honest Automotive out of Charlotte. He works at Shaheen Chevy in Lansing and runs a repair facility out of his garage. www.affordablehonestautomotive.com Nice guy and the tranny works great. I traded off to him my three junk trannies for this one he just rebuilt. Got it all in and it shifts great and I couldn't be happier with it.





Got the tranny all wrapped up and went to work on the brakes since they were nill and my fluid kept disappearing. Found out why...



Busted brake line. It's okay, it was in the rear. So I blocked off the line at the master cylinder by sticking a roofing nail in the line and retightening it (thanks Trent for asking the question "How do I block off my rear brakes?" Came in handy! loll) The DS bleeder broke free with a little bit of heat and a shot of penetrating oil. Bled out that side. Moved over to the PS and found this...



Broken bleeder. At least it doesn't leak and now I have really good brakes.

Next, I'm gonna work on the rear cab mounts to get the body lines back up, find some replacement tires and find a flywheel cover for the K-case.

It helps that I don't have to drive it everyday so I could just let it sit until I got the stuff to do it.
