Then when u plop that puppy in there the rotor points directly to the little tab with the #8 marked in it which according to the link thats dead nuts. Threw her all back together and she purred like a kitten. Took a couple key cycles for the check engine light to go out but no big deal. And even better theres no more skip so the gear was DEFINATELY the problem.... who would have thought. Thanks to everybody especially DennisTA15 for the help. The truck is just too damn smart for its own good it feels like! lol Anyways heres the link hope it helps somebody in the future!
