yall let me wory about the dealership colby...converters are easy when the dealership lets you use the lift on the weekends...maybe an hour tops after letting the exhaust cool just a bit. OR, if i get a new fuddle in time the dealership will install it for me drykill, are you on the northside of the beltway or the southside?

well, that makes a little difference...if I had to spend hours under the truck on my back to swap out 2 converters, I wouldn't mess with it. But if you can get the **** done easily enough a stock working tranny is better than a slipping one. However it doesn't matter once it becomes a core for the FLT you need to order
