I found out that it's illegal to change your own oil or transmission fluid here. I also found out it's illegal to ship transmission fluid through USPS, but it's legal (and I kid you not) live chickens.
Still no 4x4 until I can get transmission fluid. Ordered some from Amazon last week, so maybe I'll have 4x4 by February.
I've been to maybe 8 stores looking for transmission fluid. First off, automatics are extremely rare here. Second, it's illegal to change your own fluid.
I even stopped at the Jeep dealership and they don't have ATF III in stock. They called their supplier and couldn't get it delivered.
Now just need an NV4500, an NP231, axles (probably 30/8.25 for now, maybe 44/14b in the future if I have issues with the stock axles), and a suitable 97+ donor for the interior, doors, and fenders/header panel.
