Got the trans out of the RC in 2.5 hours by myself on Saturday. Then took the up pipe bolts off and the one on the drivers side sheered off. Spent the next 8 hours trying to get it out without having to pull the mani.. Ending up having to heat up each nut on the manifold to get them to come off without sheering and the shop I'm at has just about everything. Sooooo we mounted it on his Bridgeport and milled it out... pretty cool and we didn't even hit the threads. It's amazing because the bolt was all kinds of ****ed up because of all the other things we tried before that.
Today we got the trans out of the crew and put the other one back in so that truck is ready for me to sell.
I need to get a 2 post lift so bad. Love that thing.
Making sure everything was good to go.
Didn't have the right bottle for filling the trans or transfer case back up so I found some heater hose, elec tape, a big ass funnel and stuck a socket in the heater hose so fluid didn't go everywhere.
Heavy SOB
You can see the extra C3 oiler on this thing. Pretty sure Mike L built it because I don't know of anyone else that has done that.
And the reg cab has to sit for a couple days. One of the intercooler boots has a hole in it so I need to go get a new one. Also going to order a deep pan for the built one.
Got the Cheetah in the reg cab and 3" hot side in as well. If that damn bolt hadn't broken off I would have been all done around 8 tonight with both trucks. Oh well.
