Started Transgo shift kit surgery. I will hopefully finish this on Monday. I used the thread here to aid in the process: A343 Transgo Reprogram Kit Install - 1995-1997 - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/a343-transgo-reprogram-kit-install-1995-1997.731930/

A little progress today. I was swamped at work so not much time. Take note of instructions having one bolt mislabeled. If you are paying attention to the sizes you will know. Size A not C.

Swapped and removed springs..

I removed one ball from the upper body and one from lower body. The pressure spring pictured below is removed from the valve body and replaced with one in the kit. It is located in the second picture and retained by a removable tab. The tab can be removed vertically once you depress the pressure assembly with your finger towards the valve body.

Make sure check ball and other springs are in place. Carefully balanced and put into place solo is fun. 😊

Nice!...Grade 8 Paul?
10.9

 
That skidplate tells me you're ready to do some crawling!
 
Stepping it up a bit....Still not a fan of body damage.

Look at my truck, no body damage and it's only used for wheeling. Heck I don't even have a skidplate! Still rocking the original!
