Hey All, First i want to thank everyone for there kind help in filing in all the info i needed in order to know for sure that that 84 auto trans would fit into an 89. Hat's off to everyone.. you guys are such a huge help.. i am thankful... The auto trans i bought has 100,000 miles on it.. and has been in storage for the last ten years... what should i do to bring it up to snuff if you will before the install.. i know the basics like drain all fluid and replace.. filter... ect. ect. but should i replace for example drive seals.. if they are showing no signs of wear? Would they dry out over a ten year span if stored indoors? I guess while i have it out of the van.. i don't want to have to mess with it once it's in...plus.. should i buy a rebuilt torque converter? or just use my old one? any help on this matter would be grand... thanks again everyone, jesse 89 carat soon to be with an 84 trans
