Well, I had the transmission go out; was stopped at a light and I had no foward gears. Got the rigged towed home eventually and when I had a chance, I dropped the transmission pan and found two bolts loose from the valve body plus the filter popped out. Got a new filter replaced the bolts and buttoned everything up. Put new fluid in and it was driving fine. Then stopped at Taco Bell and after wards, I had no Drive; only 1/2 and reverse. So I limped it home and debated my options. If I had a garage again, I would of swapped in a 700R4 into it for cheap but I don't. So after talking with the wife, I decided to sell the rig to a friend of mine who has a shop and is looking for a vintage Suburban anyways.
However, not all is lost. Our SAR Group was surplusing another rig. 1994 GMC Suburban 1500 that previously was an ex-AMR Supervisor rig that was well maintained. And is outfitted. I bought it.
