Added new items to my girl

Last weekend I added a brite box, white nite backup lights and a Mag-Hytec tranny pan. Last night was the first dark night I could really see the difference between normal lights and the additions. What a difference.!!!

I could actually see exactly where I was backing up into. Highly recommend this upgrade in lights.

As for the Mag-Hytec tranny pan the hardest part was draining the old tranny fluid and installing the pan by myself. Sure could have used a second pair of hands to hold things in place but got the job done with minimal tranny fluid in my hair and mouth. Tranny fluid sure tastes funny.

All in all good upgrades. I am pleased. Also took the time to stop the leak I had in the tranny cooler line by the temp probe. Tranny temps are lower.

Now save money for the next upgrade.
