Thanks for the reply. I'll try to figure out to post up some pictures soon. But to be honest she's not much to look at, but for sub 500.00 I wasn't expecting a cream puff. While I used to only drive manual transmission vehicles, these days I prefer an auto. I have some athriritis in my feet that tends to flare up with the repeated motion of engaging the clutch. I have also been very impressed with the reliability of the auto transmissions in my monteros.
I have a complete running donor 1995 sr montero, ecu, trans, and all. I understand it may not be an easy swap, but is it doable?
