No 45

I won’t bother with the pillow then, but will still pack your Toggs, because you never know!

Oh who had to rent the Jeep one year? Where is that picture Doc?

The Hubs has a spare 1981 Scrambler (it's mostly a Chevy) if someone is feeling extra desperate.

 

[DangerNoodle]

There is most likely going to be a 25 coming that belonged to the Yankee Boy Mine and has been in Ouray for most of it's life.

For a 60/62, right? If so I can bring one. I won’t be there till probably Sunday morning though.
Do you need bearing, seal, diff cover gasket?

Jimmy or CD should have a bunch of 60 rear axles too and might be faster?

So the pig got a new exhaust system routed today, was towing it back from exhaust shop and I notice my truck is kinda inching forward at a stop light.... (06 Dodge 5.9 4wd auto trans 48re...) Tired I think my foot might be resting on the gas accidentally. Look down adjust and it is not my foot.... Put in neutral rpms climb then dive to a normal idle. Does this again when I put back into drive... Shifts 1st to 2nd a little odd. Driving home go down the dodge forum rabbit hole and it was what I thought maybe. 48RE Torque converter failure. Call the local trans shop to confirm and yes indeed these are the correct signs and symptoms of a torque converter failing on a 48re trans.

So my tow rig to SAS now out of service, I jog my brain here first off I am thankful this didn't happen in BEF on my drive out. Now to the realization part? Can I do a torque converter in time? 8 hours R&R book time probably take me 12 hours on my back with a handful of new 4 letter words. It has 230,000 miles on it anyways and all I do with this thing is tow.

I go through my list of people and make a call to someone whom has always had my back. I'll now be towing with my co workers 2001 7.3 excursion out, upon return from SAS i'll be pulling the trans and using those colorful 4 letter words. Until then can't wait to see / meet everyone. Should be rolling in Monday evening. Youll see the 55 and wont miss this blue clapped out excursion that my co workers wife just backed into 2 weeks ago and destroyed the passenger side.

Cheers everyone.

Trust me, it did cross my mind.

 

[cruisermatt]

@GearGeek and @FloridaCruiser22 will be passing thru Oklahoma City tomorrow and may be able to stop at Cruiser Corps, they should have one? They are heading to Casey’s

 

[ceylonfj40nut]

You are traveling with @Broski? He is not stopping to do the soup bowl. You will be fine.
