Just got the word from Chris. Converter will ship on Wed. I went out and got 4 gal of the Wal-mart Dex III. So when I get the converter I well have everything needed for the swap, well, except for the time. lol With plenty of help I'm sure we could knock it out in a day. I have access to a shop with lifts, and plenty of air tools.

Ahh. I've had my truck in there... The bays are too short for our trucks, so the door won't clear the bed. Best you're gonna get there is high enough to get under it on your knees. I did that for a trans R&R, my knees regretted it.

Ive had my truck on those lifts when I did my add-a-leafs and lift keys. Only need it high enough to get the trans out really. Do you have any better suggestions?

I know a few people around town with lifts. When it gets a little closer to your swap let me know and I will ask around to see who has one free.
