NINE...tahts a ton! ive only had mine out well this will be 5. 3 times since march!

thing that pisses me off too is that i have to remover the passanger header to get hte starter out and the oil dip stick tube! Pain in my ***...cuse i have to get a damn 50' ladder to get into the engine bay! lol

nice thing is that i dont have to jack the truck up to get under it....just pull it in the garage and start working!

well just to let you guys know this is almost exactly what happened to my pump! my converter was fine! i cleaned out the tranny and there really wasnt alot of metal shavings anywhere! prety minimal

i just cleaned everything off and added new fluid and installed the new pump assembaly. went smooth for the most part! except i forgot to plug in a sensor so i only had 1st gear and no speedo for the first test drive! lol
