Default Looking for someone in north DFW to install converter, anyone interested? $$

Need to pull my trans and have it built up for my tt3000. Anyone local interested in making some extra cash by pulling and installing trans and installing converter?

Won't be a one day deal because after trans is removed I have to bring it to my builder, wait or it to be built, then install it in the truck.

I live in collinsville. About 40min NE of Denton. May be willing to bring the truck to you.

Other than the top bolts sometimes being a pain in the ***, that's a simple job :/

Yeah Ive pulled a turbo 350 before, but im not so sure ill have any help on this one. Ill probably end up doing it. I just didnt want to pay the shop $600 to do it and thought I might find someone local who would do it cheap.

If you live in texarkana that will be about a 2-3hr drive. After a motel room and etc it would probably be cheaper to just bring it to my builder.

I have a local builder that will put a beast sunshell, shift kit, servos, super hold 4th, 3-4 clutch pack, and better sprag for $450, if I pull it and bring it to him. He wants $1000 to pull it and do it all himself though.
