Thanks! I appreciate the second confirmation very much.

Thanks for input! I appreciate the input. I'm sure the swap would be cheaper than a replacement auto/t-case combo. So, when it's truly toast, I'll go that direction. For now, I'll see if I can get by with what I have. Mean time I'll start putting together a swap parts list and hunting them...

Welcome...I'm new too Actually, this is my first post. I just bought a 1985 4WD AT for many of the reasons you mentioned. It's gutless, but it will only keep me from getting tickets. I bought it in SoCal and it did OK over the grapevine, although not with enthusiasm (63mph on the steep...
