Hang up the phone and be careful that you don't trip over the box with the parts at you door.
He was just as fast with the 5R110W transmission that I got too. AND that is one big heavy puppy.

Got that right. Ordered my adapter and stuff late Thursday and it showed up yesterday!!

Too late now & I did need it right then, although I will definitely be keeping a better eye on that Site.....Thanks

No surprise Ed's doing well, he's a great fella & has proven to me twice that he's willing to spend the time on the phone to make your life easier & FWIW my rebuilt FICM is still running 48.5-49 volts constantly after 3 years
Every time I called to see if he could get a part I'd go look at his website and the part I asked about was added by the time he got back to me.

I got the sleds and deck off. Washed it. Peeled off the 4x4 stickers from the box. Started the brake job. First one siezed caliper. Rotor stuck as well. This was going to be the spring I started lubing the slide pins on the calipers. I say that every year though.

Rubber mallet is not my friend. It only laughs when I have that in my hand.. Been beating on it with my wood splitter. Going to really have to hit it I guess.
