It is going to be in the 60s this weekend - so I'll be putting my mechanic hat
on.  

First thing is the power steering pressure hoses.  Then oil changes for the
Durango and Monte Carlo.  

I am looking into the TCC Solenoid repair to see how difficult it will be.
Trying to find info on the 2001 Durango transmission (4.7L V-8).  

So far, it appears it would involve a pan drop + value body removal.  Trying
to find the exact process and how difficult it would be before diving in. 
Plus, I will need to order the proper part(s).
