Pyro, would you mind passing along which forum that guy was posting on, I'd sure like to see what he did and what it cost. PM is fine if you don't want to post it here.
Found rebuilt trannys on ebay for 1900 or so but that is the easiest part of the job, spending the money.
Middle four are close for sure, skip shifting gives it the feel of the late 70's four speeds although I rarely do that.
Thanks for adding that tidbit!
Also, just got notice from the dealer, payment arrived for the 01 Sierra. She is officially ours, should get here in a couple weeks I hope.
