well it was bad enough were the case wasnt even a useable core ..... even the valve body was smoked and couldnt be cracked open and my corvette servo was sort of melted into place ...idk . inside the case looked like it was on fire lol ... whatever the trans didnt owe me anything .. fwiw i also had a deeper trans pan and a trans cooler too ... its cool though

how did you do it?


well i moved to florida , and driving her down just seemed outlandish and would of been real annoying as my overdrive was gone ... so i put her on a tow dolly cause i couldnt rent a car trailer from anywhere cause i was pulling her with my grand cherokee .. whatever didnt seem like that big of a deal anyway .. checked my trans fluid and loaded her up . she was in nuetral , but i guess from the angle when she was loaded the fluid was leaving from the tailshaft ..... i didnt even think to pull the drive shaft ... sooooo from the shaft spinning and my real planatary was probally on its was out ............................ shit happened . fwiw my trans was starting to slip anyway on full throttle downshifts and i believe she was slipping a little on the top end a little too .... soooo it was bound to happen anyway , now i got a nicely built trans with 5 gear planatarys front and rear , extra clutch packs in all the gears i believe alto red (kevlar) .. and a new custom shift kit .

so if anyone ever puts theres on a dolly do yourself a favor and pull the shaft ...
