Wanted to see if the trans pulls better the day after I added Lucas Transmission Fix.

Before the Lucas, Grumpy would sometimes fail this flex test with the ramps sitting on the ground. The engine would be revving, but the van wouldn't want to make the climb.

Did you ever put the lift on? Still kind of wished I had kept mine, did the AWD and V8 swap, I already had all the V8 stuff including motor, but wasn't in the cards.

I have 2" lift blocks waiting to go in, want to make a stock Badlands run before I install it.

It's not too late, the prices keep coming down. You know you want to.
