You don't need to drain trans but the lines will drip enough out so put a pan under them.
I've never used a repair kit, just done the factory line replacement. It's not terrible to do. The repair kits are easier.
"OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?

If you look really close, It does not fit the body line very well. I'm dropping it off today for painting. I'm going to ask him abt blending it into the quarter panel to make it one piece.
I can't stand the pillar gauges. I'm gonna make a mold of this one and sell a fiber glass shell for those do it yourselfers. That would like to do something similar.
Sent from a greasy hand under the hood of my buddys truck.

What kinda price would you be thinking on that? I would love to move my gauges over top the dash like that. I'd be very interested
Found this online quite some time ago, baddaddition that is some really nice work...:thumb: Have to agree with you on the pillar, it makes your blind spot a lot bigger or just to bulky/busy at the windshield.

Not sure on price I'm sure it'll be affordable. Just gotta get a pattern down and go from there. That red dash looks dang good!! I just tried to make mine flow with the curves of the dash and it matches The cowl hood. Kinda like a mini cowl..
I saw that. They gonna add to the roll pan and make it match or make it part of the bed?
Swapped the dead batteries from my wife's 02 D/A with the ones on my parts donor truck so I could finally drive hers to test out the brake line work. All seemed well except the ABS light on the dash. I'm going to drive it a few days to be sure everything is working right before giving it back to her to cart her & our 7.5mth old baby. 
I guess I'm going to hafta get the dealership to reset the ABS, huh?
On my donor ruck... I jumped it & took it for a spin to charge the batteries. Well it would barely go forward at first & hax zero reverse. I figured the convertor drained back since its been sitting a few months & my truck does this too. Well, I pull in a drive to turn around & head back to the house & still no reverse! Half way panicking now as I can't get it to go. I mean zero pull! It rolled forward in their driveway. Lol so I get out to check fluid (idk what else to check) & it was full, red & didnt smell or look burnt. It did have a lotta bubbles in it though. Hmm! So I go explain & they let me loop thru their yard. Shoo. I have the worst luck sometimes.
Whats up with that trans?!?!
