so i jsut dropped the new transmission i got into my car.. havent finished yet.. but damn..

taking out the transmission is hard from the bottom. i had to take apart all kinds of @$^!


anyone else ever do a tranny swap from the bottom?

 

Sure have. Just done it last week.

 

doing mine right now. replacing input shaft bearing

 

I got chest pain putting the tranny back on

 

yea dude, i didnt have an engine hoist.

so we only had the option of going from the bottom.

we are 98% done. my first time doing a tranny swap.

everything went good. a couple of snaggs here and there.

Some bolts are just the tinyest of areas.

yea,, i hear ya on the back pains. my back was hurting from laying on the floor all day taking things apart.
