As many of you know, Jay has earned his reputation as the go-to expert for T5 transmission conversions in our beloved trucks.

This journal chronicles his journey that began in 2011 when Jay rescued this truck from the brink of destruction at the crusher. What follows is a detailed account of his meticulous restoration process, including a complete body overhaul and several significant upgrades. Jay's expertise shines through as he documents the installation of a T5 transmission, power steering, and power disk brake systems.

Jay’s Journal starts here.

I encourage all members to take advantage of this comprehensive resource.

Best regards, Phil
