Transmission fluid and filter change. Took a really long time because whoever did it last didnt use a gasket but gasket maker stuff. And it took forever to get it off and then get the pan and stuff on.

She drives really nice though

I actually had to cut a couple inches off when I did mine. The yoke wouldn't even go onto the shaft all the way

I have no idea why they sell a yoke that's so long for this purpose. You're just inviting it to move around the further you get from the output seal. Chop that yoke down so it sits further back.

This is what I'm used to seeing SYE's look like properly done - he chopped his down as well

Mine sits all the way back on the shaft. I cut about an inch and a half off the output shaft.
