Something about the clutch on my old one, I understood it was supposed to fill w/ brake fluid, with a pretty-good leak and my having no time to fix it, I was going through a lot of brake fluid. One day I ran out and I needed the truck to work, I just filled it with ATF, figuring what could be the harm since I was going to have to go through it all anyhow soon enough. The leak stopped (?!), it worked great, never needed filling again.
btw I thought that was a pretty great transmission, easy shifting - perfect ratios. V6 and V8 same units I believe. I did shorten the shifter by 3" or so, which you have to do up the shaft a ways as there is a rubber damper at the bottom. The rubber cladding around the sides just peels back then you can push it back down again as I recall.
