Hampton 95 #5 Posted August 17, 2022 I have a bit to do with it. All I know right now it runs, moves and shifts. Trans fluid is a little milky so I understand that will be an issue but if I can get what I need done before winter I can work on that later. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just kidding, of course. The folks on here are the best. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
