Hi Guys,
That's awesome - thanks guys. My guy who was going to do it had to back out. He just couldn't swing it, as he is leaving on holidays thursday morning. Now I'm thinking I'll drive it as-is, and just drop slowly into 4th. I need to get a lot of other things done, including get some road miles on it asap. If everything works-out, I'll take somebody up on their offer, and yes, arrange for a rebuild as a swap, but I guess I'd have to do it myself on the weekend. So many other things hanging over my head at the moment that need to be taken care-of, that I don't think it is likely. I've ordered a seal kit from Olaf, and I'll get a syncho and bearings off of John before I leave, so when I get to NY and settle-in it will be a simple-enough job. Olaf tells me it is no big-deal to rebuild these trannys (he just did it), so I would like that.
The fellow I found is decent enough. He works at Ram Transmissions, and does side-jobs at home (lives in Meadowlands, for all you southern-dwellers). His name is Scott, ph 560-0946.
Jim
