awsome, thanks for the tips. I got them on and am going to bleed the lines with new fluid. thats the good news, the grate news is that it runs and the trans is ok. the gas i pulled out of the tank was the equvalent to varnish and smelled like paint thinner, the trans was bone dry and the pluggs didnt look spectacular. but it runs like a champ(aside from the brakes being mushy to the floor). so ill post pics as soon as i get that taken care of and it gets washed.(still need to do the diff fluid now that i think of it)
