How many left? I have a puddle under the parked 87. Looks like the pan/gasket. If I take it off, I'll want to put something better back on.

Reading that post makes me wonder... Just bought the pan kit, i will put a 4d55 in front of the km145. The raider has 113000 km on it. Do i have to have it overhauled? The p.o. was a farmer and the raider was used on the farm, no major offroad as we speak of. I mean, do i have to open it already? i will run 33" tires.

Nice comps here from the guy in Australia that bought 3 premium kits for himself and other local Starion owners. Comps

I head to China for a couple weeks on Saturday February 27, so if anybody is looking for something to spend that tax return on... I can arrange to get a shipment out until Thursday 2/25.

My KM145 has been crap... they cannot hold up to the power of a well built 2.6 turbo engine. I have Kevin C's original sitting in mine that is completely shot now... and it's on its 3rd rebuild in 10 years. But pushing 33's,hard off-roading, lockers, towing, lots of boost.. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> this tranny cannot hold up and I'm tired of pulling the damn thing every 2-3 years so.. I have a nice auto trans sitting in my garage from a 91 SWB complete with Tcase <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Just need a few parts... but I'm not a fan of these 145's <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
