So my little brother and I stayed up late last night to get er done!  We changed out the tranny fluid, differential fluid, bled the brakes...put on the new tires.  Way past my bed time....I was risking my marital status...but some things just need to get done.

I had no idea how the brakes would work, so I put my escort wagon in the driveway so if I couldn't stop I'd just ram into the back of the escort (sorry little buddy).  I was so focused on getting going with without stalling that I almost forgot about the escort!!  thank god the brakes worked!

It has been almost 2  years since I blew the tranny on my suburban brining this thing home from my grandpas farm....so this was a momentus night!  Sorry for the light level in the video, I'll get a better one soon, but thought it was important to get the very first forward motion!
