Good evening fellas
Got the tranny back together on the Durango today.
The inside of the tranny was pretty pristine with absolutely no mud in the pan and fluid still bright red.
I have to wait for my endoscope to get here to see if I have any dirt in cyl 3 before I can pur the fresh spark plugs in that cylinder. All the rest of the tuneup is done and I changed the oil today. Hoping that 5w30 is not too thick for the MDS system to function properly (supposed to have 5w20)... I didn't realize I was pouring 5w30 until I had 5 of the 7 qts in it...

Thanks Dave... I appreciate it...
Just got back from dropping off the Rubicon at the dealer in Owatonna to get its new windshield. Got a 2015 Kia Sorento SUV for a loaner. Nice looking and running, but the Jeep actually rides nicer over the bumpy country roads I think..
