I aspire to have ***** big enough to do this job.

Everyone says its easy..im still shy.





But..its DYI, or pay someone about $2k to do the TC seal.

Jeff-

You teach me how to drive, I'll teach you how to R&R a tranny. I will have the much easier job...

You did this the hard way. I just drop the entire rear suspension, and roll it out of the way. Then the transmission comes out easily. And this has less effect on the alignement.

Speedtoys

From my POV, Ive got the easy job.


Have you ever taken dancing lessons?


LMK if you ever make it to a Norcal track day..if its a Non-NASA event, I'll be available, otherwise I'll be busy as a race director at the NASA events.

yea,would never do it laying on the ground.did a 240z that way, first and last time.wasn't all that hard,just alot of removing.putting it all back togaether may be another story.lol.lizard,the only thing i didnt remove from suspension was the trailing arm.does it come out in one piece?

Rob Edwards

6 bolts at the front trailing arm mount brackets, 6 bolts on the crossmember to body, suspend the tranny from the sway bar, and drop the whole rear suspension. The whole thing balances on a jack, easily R&R'ed by 1 person as long as you've got the bottom of the car at least 21" off the ground.

smyth1

yes that does look like a better option for removal.i went by the wsm procedure.if i have to do it again i'll do that,which lets pray i don't,lol

Robs garage floor shines better than the hood of my car.

Good luck with the trans, way to dive-in to making the car work.
