Pinion sleeve and speedo gear are toast!!! no wonder my speedometer has not been working  :devil:  :devil:  :devil:

New pinion sleeve installed and speedometer gear replaced  :thumbup:  :thumbup:

 

C29F472A-7303-4A1D-8158-1B47E1540A3A_zps

 

 

Still needing a new cable though because mine has a break somewhere so its not spinning my speedometer, at least the pinions shows the gear is working properly when the tires spin so just need to get a new cable...

 

 

Out with the old and in with the new transmission and diff fluids  :thumbup:  :thumbup: i can feel the transmission is much happier and my shifting feels real nice after breaking in the oil...
