Thank y'all for the help. I would have had to waste all new oil just to take it in to get it checked out without the help.

Been doing some mudding I see haha. That's a shim tab for the clutch pack. I wouldn't worry about it as the shims have a tab on each side.

Not a whole lot of mudding for quite some time. Just had a lot of rain lately and I spend a lot of time on "dirt" roads for work. lol
