I ended up deciding to remove the transmission valve chest and sent it to a shop in Carolina for rebuild. IIRC they charged around $600-700. I re-installed it and has worked perfect since. I have had to fiddle with one of the HVAC mixing servos (works great now). I just recently replaced the high pressure engine mounted fuel pump (under $200 for the part). I have replaced tires once, brake pads once and of course multiple engine oil changes. No other issues now at 206k. So other than the maintenance/ normal wear stuff, I have spent about $1000 on DIY repairs. It is pretty well built and even though we drive it in salt in the winter, the undercarriage still looks great.
PS.... Lendaddy I like your wheels! Both of mine could use better looking 19 or 20's Vs the 18" stock wheels they presently have.
