What did you do to your TJ today?

Give the tranny a few days with the new fluid and ill bet you see a difference… when I got mine the 32 rh was slipping bad and I did a flush and fill and about 3 or 4 days later it was like brand new…

Cool, I'll be patient. I'm guessing that it needs to get lubricated up again. I also know that people around here recommend that the fluid be overfilled a bit. I have another quart of fluid that I may put in after I drive it for a few more days.
 
Much better to be a little over than a little under…

The gasket was leaking and it was just under the low line on the dipstick and I was having all kinds of rough shifting. Even the 2 miles of the test drive, it showed an improvement with shifting. I hope it does keep getting better like you said.
 
Wow! A regular cab truck with an 8 foot bed! They *DO* exist!!

Of course they do!

They've been shipping the wrong manual with it for some time - #8221003A is the one you need. I think you can download it from their website.

thats definitely interesting. I don't have it on me but I believe they sent #8221002A which is the Dana 35 manual :ROFLMAO: 🙄
 
Decals only, after I noticed the XJ in the Bronco vs Jeeps video didn't have a Dana 35 like Matt said several times. :unsure:

But did you get the trail repair decal?

I bought his bleepin pinion holder and bent it on first use. Still works but it’s bent.

I do like Colt’s S10 build though.
 
I am pulling my head off my 2.5, and carefully tagging and bagging everything.. Is there a special socket to get the big headbolts off. Forget it 1/2 inch long with many sides. Im

And cheap in comparison to the others. Nate’s rig looks good but has no uptravel. Rudy’s is what I expected from Rudy.

That's no doubt. The RadCharger is cool, but a shitshow. I expect Colt's S10 to win. Colt is a really nice guy. I met him at the Wrecker Games back in the spring. We BS'd for 10 minutes or so.

You were not joking around at all saying to give it a few days. I took it for about a 40 minute drive today and pretty much all the transmission issues that I had before have gone away. No more high shifting and no more indecisive shifting. I also have to put another quart of trans fluid in the oil pan.

If you’ve watched the BleepinJeep video on the rest of the competition, I think the S10 has to win.
