We pulled the top of the transmission today, the shift lever was out in the middle of nowhere. We got it back to where i think it should be then put the top back on the trans. With a bolt to temporarily replace a broken pin at the top of the assembly, the transmission will now shift into all five gears. 8)

Evil Dr Porkchop and I each drove up and down the street a few times and it shifts well except for some slop in the shift lever which I think is caused by the broken end of the pin and the bolt at the top of the tower.

So far the bumper, grille, tailgate, rear fenders, and the drivers door have been removed. We are going to try to remove the bed sides to start welding tomorrow. Other than that I've just been collecting a lot of parts.
