Default Transmission install gtg

Were installing my new transmission today 6/4 and doing alot of tune-up on my truck so if you want to enjoy some cold ones and hang out let me know. We will be working on the truck all day. We will be starting in a few hours so i will check back in a bit to see if anybody is interested. Btw i live out in Tomball on the North side of Houston. let me know if you want to come over and give a helping hand (we might need it) or if you just want to hang out.

C mon Kyle, we need some updates.

FYI I stopped by and they had just gotten the tranny loose from the block. Hope everything went well from there!

Well we got it done around 11:00 pm. Damn i'm tired and wore out elbow hurts and i almost lost my ring finger when my dad smashed it between a rubber hammer and a real sharp part of the bellhousing. Pretty nasty cut, i got the skin to close up without stiches though.

Back to the tranny. We got it put back together and everything. All we need to do now is pick up a new wheel bearing for the front right side and install it and put all the brake stuff on tommorow and i should be good to go. I can't wait until it's done my goal is to drive to work at 3:45 today.
