Lets see.

I swapped out the old steal rear diff cover for a finned alum one (jag irs) I had to fix a leak anyway, figured might as well dress it up. Turns out the old vent was clogged, pushing gear oil past the seals.

Yanked the radiator as the fill tube is leaking, will fix it up tomorrow.

Clocked the alternator, breaking a brush in the process.....grrrrrrr, making the wire connection to short to reach, will have to extend the wire.

Pulled the trans pan to replace, figured while I am in there might as well install a shift kit as the 700r4 stock shifts are really soft. So I pulled the valve body out and started cleaning it up. Going to tear it completely down tomorrow.

Happy Easter!
