Happy Easter to you too!
We colored eggs last night and little man had a blast! Mom in law is coming over for dinner this afternoon.
I got the bushing all finished up and JB welded to the end of the awning spring. I just have to put the end cap on and that should be done. Waiting on the the remote lock to arrive on Tuesday and the awning repair will be completed. Didn't get as much stuff done as I wanted too yesterday because I went to town with the wife and we ate dinner at Shane's rib shack.
A little more than 3 weeks till our vacation and I can't wait! I know it's going to go by quick but it will be something new for all of us.

I was able to get on the truck today. The tranny problem is not a cooler. I going to do fluid filter tommorow. The fluid was a little dark but have seen worse. Burned a small pile of grass clippings.

Stayed home from work today, little man is busting molars and does not sleep well and the storm woke him up. I stayed up for hours without power trying to get him back to sleep. I was exhausted by the time it came to go to work and I said the heck with it. He finally ate good tonight so maybe he will sleep better.

Did the filter change today on the tranny. Thick crud on magnet shinny particles in fluid. Not much pressure out of cooler. Went and talked to my friend down here that is good with transmissions. He told me what I already thought. TC is going out.(shinny particles) plantirary going out. For us to rebuild 1800 to get a reman 2200.

Sorry to hear about transmission problems, that sucks. I got 3 hours of overtime today and will have at least that much overtime tomorrow . I might also have to work half a day on Saturday. They have a rush transmission job and my transmission buddy is in school next week so it's all on me.
