Thanks dude... meant to call you back yesterday. I found one locally too. I truly appreciate the help there. It'll sit on a shelf with a few more "spare" parts. I got everything back together, and then... wouldn't ya know it. Just when I think I'm about to send Murphy packing, that mofo finds another way to test my patience.

Me being happy-go-lucky, I decide to get to work on the trans. Everything's going great until I get everything bolted back in the truck. As I'm reconnecting the stock trans lines, I noticed a trace of fluid drippage midway down the metal portion that connects to the trans. Wiped it off, nothing else there... so, no biggie. I go to start the truck, and fill with fluid. After a gallon goes in, I'm looking at a thickening mist of white smoke.... WTF??? I look under the truck to find an ever growing puddle of my cheap red fluid hitting the concrete.

Turns out that little drip earlier was signs of a larger than a pinhole in the line. I'll be working on my JB Weld skills sometime next week. Any bets on that holding up? I'm just a poor, unlucky bastard!
