It's not to bad. I'd have a trans guy do it. My buddy did it flawlessly in and out with no issues except the y pipe was a bitch cause pace setters a slip joint style instead of a donut gasket like kooks.

I finally did something to it today: Replaced the battery with an 850CCA battery from NAPA.

It wasn't by choice...I had to, damn thing wouldn't start this morning without putting on the battery charger, then it wouldn't start after the kids ball game. Hope this battery last longer than the factory crap batteries did (stock one went out 1 week before 3 yrs so dealer replaced it free and the replacement one made it just over 3 years of its own.)

Finally ordered Tony's suspension parts today (Bell Tech drop struts, DJM arms, 30.5 rear springs & Bell Tech rear shocks). Can't wait to get away from the 4x4 look!

He told showed me a couple of empty 4L60 trans cases and they both were the same as mine as far as that chunk that I thought was missing and he told me that was normal and fine. As far as tuning, my tuner played with shift points, line pressures, and torque converter lockup.

$12 for the GPS antenna off eBay. It wasn't the right one I don't think so I shaved the plug to fit. We'll see if it works soon.

As for the H/U, one of the local guys hooked me up for free.
