    Life is good.

    I'm still here, just haven't had time to post much. Hopefully by mid to late summer I will have a big shop built so I will have a place to work on my next truck projects.

    ...don't mean to hijack anything here.



    As far a trannies go, the tko 600 or similar may be the most cost effective option in the end, as you will have more shifter location options.
    Tremecs website has all the measurements of their transmissions including the T56 so that may help you decide which transmission to go with.
    The TKO and the T56 are durable transmissions IMHO.

    Good luck
