I got a call from Dan a couple of hours ago. They drove over to Lordsburg and parked it at the KOA. Everything seems to be working fine. What a great couple. Not sure if they have the internet so I wanted to let their Canadian friends know where they are tonight. They are a bit unsure of their plans for the next 2-3 days.
I was reading the Daily Pose and saw Manny's picture there. I was thinking about him all day long. He builds a fine product and I can almost feel his presence everytime our transmission shifts. He makes these available to us through the Jims for a very resonable price. Even if one needs it shipped they are a bargain.
Probably everyone carries a spare governor but just in case you don't, call Jim and get one. Could be a good idea to have a drill too, which I never gave any thought to. Must pick up a cheap drill to carry along.

Dan,
Do you mean a spare Governor or spare Governor gear?

PS - Whatever you do DON'T buy a drill from Harbor Freight - remember
they're CRAP! ;-)

Chinese should stick to cooking, not manufacturing.

Michael,
Here's a picture of the gear:
http://www.appliedgmc.com/prod.itml/icOid/721
Here's where it fits into the bottom of the transmission governor:
http://www.appliedgmc.com/prod.itml/icOid/1024
It drives the governor and the speedometer cable.
If it breaks the trans doesn't shift.
As the first picture notes - "Always carry a spare."
Regards,
Rob M.
