Not yet.

Too cold outside to work on this and I don't feel like towing it to work to work on it.

I miss driving this thing like crazy though. Haha

Come on mate. You'd have to have a spare trans somewhere. Swap it in and get going. Faster you work the warmer you'll be lol

You're right. I'm lazy.

Looking for a trans now and well get this thing going.

Did notice another issue though. Thing doesn't start now. Key on and the dash lights light up but when you go to engage the starter it doesn't crank or anything.

Not sure if the NSS is acting up or what.

Looks like I have myself an AW4 if I go to pizzafest.

I don't even know what pizzafest is but I'm going.

By my super powers of figuring things out I would determine Pizzafest to be a festival dedicated to pizza. Sounds pretty great.

Seriously though I wasn't calling you lazy was just muckin around. You work pretty hard from what I've seen. Good find on the trans though.

Oh god dude. I'm sorry. I thought i clicked the smiley face right after i said i was lazy. Sarcasm doesn't transfer well on the internet. Hahahahah.

Seriously though it's one of those things that you just don't want to do for some reason. It's like you know it's not that hard but yet you're still dragging your feet to do it. I really do miss that jeep. It went anywhere.

Pizzafest is indeed that. A NAXJA meetup so it's going to be jeeped down. I'll be sure to get some pictures. It's 120 miles from my house, but it's a free trans so i can't complain. That's one thing about the USA that i love. You guys would be paying hundreds for a trans meanwhile over here we have people giving them away because nobody needs one because the AW4 hardly ever breaks.

I honestly don't even know if my trans is cooked. I just figure it's good insurance to get another one.

I mean hell i got a complete running 4.0 for $20. You guys are getting beat.
