Man, where were you last week?!

Transmission has been getting worse. Like p!as me off while I'm driving worse. More so than normal, felt like a total POS last time I hit the track. So today I dropped the trans and tomorrow dropping it off for a rebuild. Oh, and it blew the front seal out of the AC compressor, so gonna tear that apart for a reseal too. Got about a month before we move, so what better time than now?

Sounds about right.

Dropped it off today, hope to have it back in a week or 2. Didn't find any "since I'm in there" stuff so trans can get slammed right back in. But I do need to split that AC compressor open to reseal.

Still waiting on the transmission, decided to crack the AC compressor open for a reseal. I removed it and gave it a spin. It didn't sound right and didn't feel right either, so I cracked it open and this is what I found.

Don't think a seal kit is gonna save me here. I need to get a compressor and figure out which orifice tube to put in after I flush the rest of the system. Hopefully a flush will be acceptable long term for the rest of the components.

After a little more homework it looks like I need to add a condenser to my shopping list. And seeing how my trans got opened up today, sooner is better than later to order parts. I'm getting a new pump, new steels, new intermediate band, new sprag (intermediate I think, Superior shift kit, new harness, reman converter, and basic rebuild kit. Apparently there are a couple of o-rings that will flatten out and cause some of my problems as well. The amount of not destroyed stuff has been the bigger surprise.
