Impressive! I've got to do the same to my tranny...though I'll send it in for a full remanufacture. Digging your attention-to-detail! Looking forward to seeing this progress.

Thanks. I almost bought a brand new transmission before I even opened mine up but I decided to rebuild instead. Then I learned that these transmissions are pretty tough and it looked pretty good inside. So I decided to focus money elsewhere for now.
What size tires are you running?

They are 0.3" smaller than stock. I hope they look ok, I'm planning to lower it eventually



Right side off and cleaned up. Too cold to paint so that'll be tomorrow.





Cleaned up. Might mount slave tonight and trans is ready to go in

I don't think I've ever used "Ranger" and "POS" in the same sentence......

This right side valve cover was hard to get off. I'm going to have to figure out a way to get it back in without scratching it all up

With these the brake and clutch systems will be 100% new, except for brake lines. Looking for those too
