Finally got the torque converter installed. Plan was to do this once the cab was back off, but changed my mind. Had to yell for help as I was pulling it! Glad I had it strapped on the jack or I would have had an expensive night. As I was moving the jack back the handle came out! I was in a tight spot.

Transmission is going back in tomorrow. Down to the radiator and we can turn the key!
