Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Yup... BTDT. It's about five pounds over UPs max weight. It's gotta go truck. About $75 from NE Oregon to Ohio IIRC. Suggestion: Make friend with your local junkyard. They ship trannys all the time. A case of good beer on a Friday usually does the trick. Trans goes on a pallet, Torque converter goes in a box. Gotta *really* drain it. Start draining now! Jim -- If there is light in the soul, there will be beauty in the person. If there is beauty in the person, there will be harmony in the house.
