Trans was dropped off today.... since i have a slow day tomorrow i`m gonna swing by the shop & take a look at the beast.
I swear the guys at the shop think i`m nuts or something...they have cummins trucks also but short of putting a smarty jr & an exhaust they havn`t done anymore to there trucks, i think they are trying to live through my truck or something because they love having it at the shop...... probably because it means money for them....hahaha

Jeff's is my 5th...4th billet. Hopefully last, so far, so good.
That shaft on the right is the reason why mine came out. 1,000 miles on that shaft, 500 on the one to the left.
Garmon's did a full rebuild on mine. I'm 15k into transmissions at this point.

my man !!!! you are tough on parts.
The good news of all that is how many miles you have been able to get outta Jeff`s.
Guess your miles per billet shaft average are going way up.

Ha!! I wish!
it's all the off duty part times I have to work..Put in LOTS of 17 hr. days like I did yesterday and today( still am...).. 0545 - 2400 hrs today... Long time in this freakin 30 lb. uniform... Ugh!
And if it wasn't for Jeff's help with my truck and several other Very kind and generous folks, I'd have been out of this game Long ago..
I'm still paying on a lot of it... Sometimes I wished I'd never got credit cards!
