Okay, well reschedule the meet. I would like for everyone to be able to go. I know that might be impossible but right now there is just two of us. We'll shoot for a day once skunk gets his HG fixed and mr. white doesn't have a dept meeting.
I'm also in the middle of swapping a tranny so I'd like to get it done and off jack stands.

Skunk: You tore into that thing a lot faster than I expected. you going to replace freeze plug while your there?
Jomps: so far getting the old transmission out has been the pain. It is unbolted and hanging there but I can't get the crank to let go of that little stub on the torque converter. I had it unbolted by 7pm last night but worked until 10 just trying to get it out. Finally I blocked it up with wood and said screw it. I am still looking for a good used TQ converter if you know where one is.

Sold the Ford Expedition last week and bought this 96 Zj Limited today for a DD.Power everything,windows,locks,mirrors,sunroof.Has heated leather seats and mirrors,alarm,keyless entry and it all works!Feels weird to drive a Jeep with sway bars and not lifted I keep expecting body roll in curves!lol.I paid 1500 for it.Clear coat on the hood is peeling is the only bad thing so far.
