pan wouldn't go back on with the whole dipstick tube, don't know why but I put it in a vice and finally got them apart. Only problem now is that there's no car and I need the new O-ring. Will have to wait till tonight to finish unfortunately

It's over. That nonsense shouldn't have taken this long, but that's the nature of my build apparently. Try and do a mod/maintenance the makes the jeep unable to drive and it'll take a week.

That sucks. It's there a return policy on something like that so they can send new ones? Let me know how it rides with those gears, I gotta set too, just waiting to get lockers to put them in
