    buy an L32/go all out, up to you on that one. Finding a trust worthy machineshop is more difficult than it sounds.

    See Dave Norris at TEP for all your transmission needs.

    I will look into that. I have an extremly trust worthy machine shop thankfully so I gotta weigh my options.

    I'll def check out TEP. Transmission isn't terrible just shifts somewhat hard into reverse and when running cold the shifting can be a little hard but not terrible. Appreciate the info


    Quick Question. I havent be able to figure out what are these pieces above the side skirts called? Im trying to find replacmetns but kind of hard when I dont know what im asking for

    It's a body molding.

    If there's a better name, I do not know of it.

    The one in the middle of the door that is broke is called a body side molding.

    The one below it is called a lower door molding, applique, or rocker molding.
