Y8 trans swap

Swapping my DX trans out next week for an EX trans. (Y8) This will be my first transmission swap on a Honda. Anything I should know? Tips? Everything will swap right over? My current clutch will work ok?

Its a straightforward trans swap. The 8mm pin in the shifter rod might give some grief. Youre gonna love the new gear ratios!

Re: Y8 trans swap

Thanks guys. And yeah, I hadn't planned on doing this right away but the input shaft bearing is going out my current trans and I found this one for a good price. So, in she goes.
