After 16 yrs of intense duty... transmission started to slip and ...wait a minute or two for reverse to come in ...being cheap i opted for a used unit ...7 days warranty..so with fingers crossed...installation began...been 2 months and all is well....

If i had cleaned the tranny and didnt take pictures would of been faster...one bolt head was rounded thats why i needed to take off the exhaust manifold...
