We got the tranny in today and it looks to be in excellent condition. Everything is hooked up and ready to go. All we need to do is fill up the fluids in the tranny and diff and get the rear diff together and it will be rolling 4.44 style. The old tranny was shot to crap! the front diff had teeth missing and the torque converter just spins freely like it's attached to nothing at all. It will be completed next weekend and I'll post how it goes.

I knew that "switch" way before I bought my first SVX. If you're using a CRT monitor, maybe you can't tell what I meant. But if you're using a LCD monitor and be observative enough, you may be able to know what I meant. Jason, that's because it looks like the passenger side's wiper arm is bent.....almost half of the wiper blade is not attached to the windshield.

The car is done and another 4.44 is born. It runs and drives great and really has some good get up for having 17" heavy ass wheels on it. We also got the power steering fixed, put on new front end links and a ball joint, and put new brakes on it. When we went to fire it up it wouldn't start and it turned out to be due to the starter button the doofus that had it before us put in it. It was wired wrong and the computer didn't seem to know we were cranking the car. Once I hooked it up the right way for the key to start it, It started just fine. The kid we got this car from is a complete idiot and a liar. We also came to find out that one rim is severely bent and another one was driven on a flat and ruined the tire on it. I should have known as soon as I saw a POS eagle talon on jackstands in his driveway that this car was probally screwed up. All is fixed now though and it's running good, So I'm not gonna complain too much for $900, although it should have been more like $500.
