Thanks, I love the exhaust. I have a few small leaks I need to weld up soon though.

The bad starter.

The new starter.

I have brand new dual batteries and new alternator, so I knew the starter had to be bad.

The new one turns it over faster for sure! I actually bought a rebuild kit for my original starter in my 02, just haven’t gotten around to it yet.

Ugh. I've been suspecting my starter's getting tired. It sounds just like your old one. I should bite the bullet before it leaves me stranded.

Definitely sounds good with the new starter!

The day finally came and my 6L80 is toast. There was fluid pouring out of the inspection cover, so I'm assuming the torque converter neck cracked, or a break in the bell housing. Regardless of what I'm thinking the issue is, the trans needs to come out. Here is a list I've populated so far, let me know what you think.

Also, I don't know how tagging works (or it's been a long day, lol) but I'm hoping Nick will chime in @NickTransmissions

Who's going to build the trans for you?
