Just got the trans in from Brad at Transaction Transmission. I have used him for a while now and he puts in the effort. Components were upgraded and everything set new. This should be strong for the newowner. It was cleaned and painted at the shop but I am going to clean it up a little more and put on a coat of the “Mercenary Offroad” package graphite gray. 4L80e ready for transplant Mercenary Offroad Camarillo, CA Mercenary Offroad 19 N Aviador St.

Well, we got the truck running enough that I can drive it around. It stops. We even locked it up and watched the black lines form up behind the tires. Not bad for 35’s. It was moved over to Camarillo to the shop known as Mercenary Offroad where a custom bumper will be fabricated for it. The designator for this bumper is also 001 as it will be the first one designed for this series truck.

So the PO was rough on the vehicle. Probably multiple PO’s. Included are some pictures to show the detail we went to in repairing and rebuilding the brake systems. The brake system had been WORKED. They were pretty much shot. When we got it the pedal hit the floor. It didn’t want to stop so the ride to the shop was a bit of a terror show for that 2 miles.
