Krawl5 4l80 pain in my ____!

- Start date
83 Jimmy drw 60 & 70hd, 44 boggers, 4l80e, 205 and other goodies
I got her in on a trade for a beat up dodge dually i bought for $3k. Traded for the k5/jimmy plus $2k. Was SO happy!!! In months i bought a 6" super lift kit to get it ready for the local mud bog.
Was really suprised what it could go threw with stock suspension and 31's but... i just dont know when to stop.
Bought some bald 37 swampers for $200
And bought new boggers for the rear
I blew threw the first transmission after a few months. Paid the cheapest shop around to rebuild it. Bad bad bad idea but it still lasted for 4 months. In that 4 months she became my daily while my 4l60e took a sh*t in my 04 silverado.
All my friends are jeepers... so long story short i did a LOT of recoverys. Plus had to goto the jeep meets just to rub it in
Awesome looking truck, more please. 
Sorry i work nights and trying to do this as i built it. Adding when i can
So after rolling it because of the no flex and lift blocks. I decided to do some research. Looked into the 64 spring swap and just had to do it
With 5" diy4x shackles
She did pretty good with no way to really test it
My other big blue truck
Changed the gears to g2 4.56 with a 14sf rear so i could stay 6 lug. Never had an issue. While doung the gears my buddy and i cleaned out the axle tubes. Found sea shells and fishing line from playing in the lake so many times. Shes my boat lol
Tested her out when gilmer park was still open
Was amazed
And then the th350 started pushing fluid out the dipstick. Cleaned out the vent tube and kept playing
Didnt mean to post pics of the wife and tires i helped with.
Took the other truck out to rednecks with paychecks
Hitting all the big holes with all my boys
