Well, after beating the livin' shyte out of my custom-built AOD for two and a half years, it finally puked. It's a real stick-a-cat-in-the-blender-***-first noise in first and second gears, forget overdrive... Apparently I was going a little too fast/hard when I yanked it down into first in a race on I-75 & M10...
Now I'm faced with what to do about a new tranny. I'm thinking a custom 4R70W with a Baumannator TCS, but a college budget is going to put that on the back burner for a while. Anyone have a spare 1997-up 2WD Explorer with an automatic? I drove the '80 Newport around for a while, but that sucked *** because the p/s pump went out. My parents, feeling sorry for me, bought me a '93 Accord to get me to college and back. Only thing is that I'm stuck with it until I either a)graduate or b) find enough $$$ to fix the 'Stang! I got fired from my on-campus job at the coffee shop because it's run by a drama troupe (long story), plus I have loans to pay off. Okay, enough of me bitching. I'm acing all of my classes, and I get to go home and see my family today.
Man, college life sucks sometimes....
...though I am surrounded by hot girls constantly, and I AM a SigEp...
