The work will be done by friends shop - first things first when pan comes in the mail Monday we need to fill tranny and patch the hole in T-case (BY THE WAY - ARE they interconnected... does tranny share ATF with T-case ?) to see if tranny is alive. I am having my fingers crossed (even on my feet) that tranny is alive that I just ripped through the pan.
When my shock goes away I might post pictures on what had happened.
