I haven't decided on if I'm gonna keep it and rebuild with all the upgraded parts and sit on it. I bought a trans from a zr2 pickup not too long ago, was told it was good... the fluid and everything looked good when I bought it, but it was already pulled so not sure... so that's gonna go in for the time being

and its definitely burnt up, fluid is really dark lol... was surprised it didnt go on the way there while pulling the trailer tho lol... was always good in towing in third, but will definitely be looking into an aftermarket cooler to slap on and help... saw yours, might look into it more lol...

Blazer has been towed to a shop, they are on holidays, but will get to her when they return. I shopped around, and have been recommended by many to use them, and the price was reasonable to what I've been given... wish I was able to do it myself, but life's got other plans for me at the moment lol.

After trans and tc case are swapped, it will be towed to a muffler shop, where they will modify my 2wd ypipe I have from the sonoma, to fit the blazer.

Nothing else so far lol....

Transmission and tcase installed and trans is working good! Had to drive it down the road to the exhaust shop without a ypipe... loved the sound of it lol! Couldn't hear the Harley right beside me....

Tcase will get tested when I fix the front driveshaft.

So close!!!
