If nothing else I want to thanks you boys for convincing me that the
auto to manual transmission conversion I have been contemplating for
the past few months has been worth it. I don't underestimate your
competence in the auto transmission field, but I would much rather
troubleshoot a manual (or simply carry a spare) in the event that I
have something like a massive failure such as this. It definitely
sounds like it takes a simple idiot (such as I) to change a manual,
whereas it takes an artisan (such as you) to deal with an automatic. I
can't wait to start pulling that auto this weekend. Let all know, a
very cheap, used, automatic transmission will be available for pickup
very soon in Idaho. It still works, but scares me too much to make the
drive across the lower 48 this fall. Linkage and whatnot included. A
case of PBR tallboys is all it will cost you.
