First, the introduccion. I´m the new owner of a funny 88 Raider and also, it´s my first post in 4X4wire, so please be kind

I´m not very skilled with english and realized I´m getting rusty, so sorry if my spelling is bad. By the way, PFAQ is Pacho´s Freequently Asked Questions (I know it´s stupid, but some fun might help me get through this

))

In Mexico we don´t have much options and since I´m a big Montero-Pajero-Shogun-Raider fan, had to grab what was at range.

The things I know:

-The Combo (2.6 lts + Auto Trany) sucks...
-I can get 4" up easily, -I´m talking about the Raider- 2" on Body Lift, and 2" on Susp Lift.
-I can fit 33´s with this config.
-My trany is in bad shape -it slips like a M/T with bad clutch- in 2nd gear, shifting is decent but far from good.

The Firsts PFAQ´s:

-Acording to the Owner Manual, the A/T is the same for the 2.6 and the 3.0. My ancient knowledge in guessing things I don´t realy have Idea tells me this is not true, but would be nice if I´m wrong. Any guide on this?

-By any chances, could I save this trany, and is it worthy?? It seems like is hard to find some parts.

I´ve tons of PFAQ´s, but will begin with this to keep it simple.

Thanks on advanced and hope to get some real light here.

PS. I promise that I went through New Members, Mitsubishi Tech and Search Machine
