Been thinking about it man, I'll keep you in mind!
:rofl: :rofl: Jon that's nuts haha. I wouldn't mind having a shop, but lack of money/experience would keep me out of the business. Plus, I couldn't take those east coast winters :poke:
Went with Master_o_turbonics to get some stuff for his truck, and he got me this nice little close ratio ZX 5 speed :thumbup: We cleaned it up, and stuffed it into my truck. The old 4 speed was on it's way out. Lots of input shaft play, and leaking like a sonovabitch.
I cleaned it up a bit while he pulled the 4-speed out. Flipped the transmission over, and dumped about a quart of water out followed by some purple mess. :geek: (Royal Purple gear oil I guess?) We flushed it out and it came out pretty clean. Put it back together, and voila! Monkey has overdrive :devil: Althouth, the reverse gear is making a hell of a noise, and popping out of gear, so this one will be rebuilt/replaced soon.
(watch for updates to his thread in a few minuets!)
