Why don't I plan on coming up tomorrow night. With James, that'll make three of us, and I think we could get a lot done pretty quickly. Kevin's got some things to do like throw out bearing and rear main, and if he gets them done tonight, we could make major progress tomorrow.

I didn't bring the right clothes to work, and by the time I drive from downtown to Clear Lake, and back up there to (damn near Huntsville) where y'all are, it'd be 7:30-8:00 before I even got up there tonight.

Of course, this all but guarantees my pager will be buzzing like a hornet's nest all day tomorrow, but I'll just plan on being available.

Matt, whichever night you want to have dinner is fine. I'm always hungry.

Kevin, you've got a lot to do tonight, but if you get it done, we could rock and roll tomorrow.

Looks like Tuesday is better for everyone else. I will be jetskiing on Tuesday so that is fine with me also. Anyone have a suggestion as to where? I will be a Lake Conroe but "have car, will travel" maybe we should go to Brian since he is forever coming north.

How the hell do you get the release fork on BEHIND the damn t/o bearing while putting the bellhousing on

I've gotten the bellhousing on and lined up twice but by the time the bellhousing lines up the fork falls out from behind the t/o bearing

Hey guys. Sorry I won't be able to join the fun. I spent the day (5:30am - 8:30pm) with Kerry at the hospital. She had and passed a kidney stone. What a day. That also puts me far enough behind at work that between now and the 17th, work owns my butt. I may end up working both days this weekend.

Geo, tell Kerry that I hope she feels better! Been there, done that, not a lot of fun, wait, ask her if she wants to trade, I'd rather pass a stone than do what I'm doing..

UPDATE!!!

Last night, Brian, James, and myself got the clutch assm. in the bellhousing, and bolted up. Torque tube re-adjusted, placed. Transmission INSTALLED! (Thanks James, Brian, I OWE you guys)

We started around 6:30 and used a method mentioned by GTZ (Thanks Randy) whereby you place the fork in the bellhousing, position the pressure plate, install the release fork rod, THEN put the friction plate on and mount the whole thing, including bellhousing, install the bellhousing bolts, and then install the p-plate to flywheel mounting bolts, one at time through the starter hole.
