12 hour tranny swap

So far the automatic to 5spd trade has worked out excellent. SLewis (Willie) is on his way home after a 12 hour tranny swap. We started at 6:30 this morning on Willie's truck, stripped it then reassembled. Everything went real well with the exception of a few problems in the wiring harness.

Both of our cross members were able to be pulled by hand, no
beating, port-a-power, or cussing!! Lots of thanks to Chris Strickland for helping out and lending the shop. Hopefully we'll get my truck running tomorrow
