Yes, it was. The posted speed limit is 75 so you can get a bit of a running start so the jump up from 75-115 is easy (frankly TOO easy) in the Z.

Thanks for the offer- Hopefully I wont need to PM you!

Many times on the road to Dallas, & Ok City, in sleepers w/UPS. Only thing was our tractors were maxed out @70mph unless we were going down hill....lol I can only imagine what it would be like to run at an extended time in the Z at those (115) speeds. Around here it would only be for a few seconds if that on a deserted road and in the middle of the night.....

Good luck on the fluid change......

I did mine by myself and on jack stands. 17mm hex which is not hard to find. Like they said - remove fill plug first. I used the funnel and garden hose method to fill it back up. Really wasn't a bad job and yes the trans shifted much better after...
