No I haven't, in my condition I cant do a hell of alot. The tranny shop said something inside is binding which is why I looked for a replacement. Maybe while its sitting in my garage in nine monthsI can check things out. At this time I have not other choice.

BTW it never came to my mind that you were being a smart arse, I appreciate any advice, I just don't have the time and inclination at this point to follow it up.
