Thank you Rice. I appreciate the visits more than you can know and to see three LC's pull up really made my day. Looked like a club meeting with all the high class iron here.
As for the rebuild, I believe that is the best method since any replacement 4 speed might have some unknown condition that could surface later on. This is one job I am wanting to do once and not again for a long time. As for the bearing suggestion I assume you meant the bearings in the transmission and TC which I would be up for rather than skip. Replacing anything that might be a problem later makes a lot of sense.
This afternoon after it warms up a little I will pull the 40 under the car port and check the fill level on the transmission to see where it is. I just happen to have two quart bottles of grease available and I will report back as to how much it took.
A HAMOM sounds wonderful and I would appreciate the assistance. However, I don't have an enclosed garage so the weather will be a consideration. If anyone has any suggestions I am open and willing to consider almost anything. I have come to far with the 40 to slack off now.
Thanks again Rice. Your 40 looks and sounds terrific. Thanks Jason for your input and I appreciate having Ryan there as well. I appreciate Ryan because his is about as close to stock as it gets and seeing his as he starts out on the road to rebuild is terrific.
