90 days

90 days after blowing a trans, the truck is back on the road. It took way too long, but the end results where worth it. I think. She received a freshend JW transmission, updated DP Tunes, stage 1 Casserly single shots injectors, new OEM transmission pan, headers, oil cooler valve covers, uvc harnesses, glow plugs, passenger valve cover, Strictly Diesel regulated return system with fuel bowl delete, RiffRaff v2 wheel, and a bunch of odds and ends. Darn it feels good to drive it again.

Oh, I almost forgot. First driving impressions where in the rain.
Holy #%€£! Someone mentioned permagrin, that is a huge understatement.
I can't wait for roads to dry up. I drove home tonight in my normal 80e setting and it was a white nuckle ride with the wet roads. I think I may hace to use 40 or 60 when it rains. Sorry for the rambling post. I'm exicited

I did all my mods in stages... having it all done in one hit is a shock to the system. Congratulations! Remember... it's an outside toy now. Don't play with it in traffic, you'll frighten the cars.
