Talking Transmission FIXED!!!!

Hey guys, remember when I asked about getting my M5OD unstuck? Well today, I took my brother's advice, and I put fresh fluid in it, and drove it down our road, I JAMMED on the brakes, without hitting the clutch, and it unstuck!!! I drove it down the road a few miles, and it worked great!!! I came home, and put some Lucas trans additive in it, with another fluid change (it had shavings in it plus I just used any kind of trans fluid I had on the shelf) Anyway, after all the changes, I drove it down the road again, and it shifts good, and it goes into all the gears well!! It makes a little noise, but not too bad. I'm goin to drive it a while, and see how good it does! Not bad for a $500 truck!!

Thanks for all the help guys!!
