bummer, James was telling me about it. Pulling the tranny isn't too hard. Just make sure you remove ALL the bolts from the bell housing. There are two little ones that go from the engine side that are easily forgotten. Also having a motorcycle jack for installation is handy.

The e12s aren't bad with the right socket. That freeze plug def looks sick. The dipstick tube can stay in the tranny but the jeep has to be high enough to clear it.

Oh yeah....I replaced it with brass plugs too,should be good for a few years now.I got the trans lined up and finger tight but I am thinking of pressure testing it first to be safe.You know how there are those jobs on your rig that you dred doing?and then when you get finished you say to yourself "that wasnt too bad" well this isnt one of them!

Anyone need control arms? Was gifted a used pair and I already got some with my recent lift. They could use some new paint. Best offer and their yours!
