1.3qts!?! That thing was darn near empty! I can about imagine how tough it was shifting.
Ickie, if that thing doesn't have a million miles on it yet...and if she's game for any more maintenance on it someday...I'll suggest going with a synthetic gear lube in the tranny. Those 833 OD trannies are good units and I've had really good luck smoothing up the shifting by going synth.
Same goes for the rear-end lube.
I know you guys don't get anywhere near freezing down there so you don't have to worry about hard shifting when it's below zero, but a good synthetic will help keep those gears running cooler in the heat too.
Oh wait...I shouldn't be suggesting you find more work to do. Sit back and relax a bit!
