Automatic works....
I got the new transmission in over the weekend and got the driveshaft back from the driveshaft shortening guy yesterday . She's all done. runs great . Motor and everything has a completely different feel and sound now. I'm sure I'll get used to it. That Lokar shifter is the greatest thing since sliced bread !
I got lucky! The transmission came out of a 72 1/2 ton truck with much smaller tires and probably 3.07 gearing. I have 3.54 gears and 285/75-16 tires . I took it out on the highway at 60 miles an hour on the speedometer. I drove exactly 5 miles by the mile markers in 5 minutes and 1 second. It wasnt that close before I changed the transmission!
