I agree a hundred percent. I get some sort of sick satisfaction from nearly killing myself bench pressing the trans and diff into place by hand, yes, but from here on I'll use a trans jack for certain. Good case of bravado needing check by way of smart n' safe common sense.

Alright, off to work. But I will continue to dig the pictures back up and re-host them post by post, so this will eventually get finished again.
Poor connection out here in Afghanistan, so it takes an inordinate amount of time.

did anyone ever find a part number for that o-ring gasket? Do I just need to put some RVT on it?
