    So this is hard for me, but what do you guys think

    Although not as roomy, the tranny HAS to be better than the 4L30E in my Trooper.

    If you're not hurting for money, just buy a roomy daily driver. You can get a bulletproof jeep cherokee for like $1500.

    Oil bolt? The bolt that attatches to the turbo goes straight into the iron of the center cartridge. I don't see any chance of stressing anything here. Besides, I only plan to place mild tension on this assembly, as it's only purpose is to reduce the workload of the exhaust manifold studs.

    Want to take some of the torque strain off of the exhaust manifold bolts. They're supporting a: 25lb manifold 20lb turbo 10lb downpipe Fwd weight/ strain of the exhaust system The stay will simply put a light upper tension on the turbo. Hopefully, it'll help with longevity.

    Tired tonight. Adam came down from SC today, and we worked out asses off, removing all his suspension arm/ hub bushings. But it was worth it- we got them all out. Picked up my upper turbo stay from the fab shop. Looks like it will do what I need it to.
