Rich your bronco still pissing when it stops running?

of course. I really want to fix it but I keep puting it off.

Dude grab the stuff you need so we can fix it after your BBQ! I'm not just driving out there to put peanut butter on my balls you know

I'm totally down for that (fixin the transmsision, not the pb). I just didn't think anyone would want to work on stuff when it's suppost to be a get together. Would you want to do it Saturday morning?

our club name is under construction, i only thing its right that when were together we construct

Put some miles on the truck tonight and man, I am HAPPY!

It never reached 200 degrees the whole night. I drove it on the freeway to livermore and then all aroud Livermore then back home. It just climbed to about 180 - 190 and stayed there.

LOVIN IT!

Cool, glad your happy with it. That temp reading is after the cooler right?

It's on the port on the side of the tranny. Which means my tranny might not be getting hot enough for the most part but then again, who knows. I need to re-due the gauge before it's worth anything more than a (Hot, really hot) feeler gauge.


I also havn't leaked any tranny fluid yet

Ive read about using that port on the side of the housing, but Ive never found a straight answer on where its reading, and without knowing that the numbers dont mean a whole lot.

It is suppose to be taking a readin of the fluid in the pan but it's about a 1/2 inch above the pan and more or less gets a general housing tempature more than anything. The best way would be to get it nice and hot and then take my thermal thermometer and take physical readings off the lines giving me a better guess where the guage is in compared to inlet and outlet temps. Either way, I'm not worried about overheating my tranny anymore. The cooler rocks so far and with the auto switch, I should be set. The sensor - Fan Control, Thermostatic, 180 Degrees On/170 Degrees Off

i've got news for you if its only 1/2" above the pan its in the fluid. slide your dipstick down paralel to the tube and see how high above the pan line the fluid id supposed to be.

Tranny doesn't leak near as much as it use to. Bad news is that power steering box does. I have the new seal, i'm just not ablt to get the old one out without taking the box off the frame. Probably fix this when I do the SAG.


( stupid leaks!)

Wheres the box leaking from? Ive replaced the input seal on mine 3 times.

I believe it's leaking from the sector shaft (where the shaft comes out for the pitman arm). I know Justin has done this repair and I have the kit to swap it out. I just couldn't get the stupid snap ring out. It has a rubber seal over it and I wasn't really sure if that had to come out first or not and if so, how? It's stupid, I know.

Yeah I havent done that seal... so Im of no help and this post is pointless...
