I tried to, and eventually after 73k miles, it did break. I pulled out of my driveway one day and it barely pulled at all. Another person would have put the hammer down and made it go to their destination. I put it back in my driveway and stopped driving it. There was one broken torrington bearing inside of it, blew apart and let other drums etc, shift around, leaving no EPC pressure. I think I can replace just the one bearing and have it work fine with a normal rebuild.

But I do not want one again, after this is running I'll try to find a buyer for it and the SOHC V6. I'm going to find out how tight the engine bay is, the 3.7 looks like a far better engine, with the 6R trans.
