Thanks and I agree!! Last big hurdle to overcome to make it a daily driver is the transmission. One of my favorite things in life is when someone says they are going to do something and the actually do it when they said they would. Donnie the transmission guy showed up last night to work his magic. He's been at this game for 35 + years and makes it sound and look a lot easier than it is. Still no damage evident. He left for his shop with a bucket full of transmission parts. He will continue to assess for damage and also do some upgrades via springs and larger holes. Goal is to make it a little more aggressive where the shifts can be felt but stay short of making it so harsh that I hit the back of my head on the back glass.
