What are you now, Bob Barker's sidekick?
:tvhaha:
Well....that explains everything since the DUDE with the Elvis hairdo was the one famous for the line....
Hey that dude had some good legs. That's why they never showed them. Everyone would want him.
I've always wondered if we could do something similar to the J-Mod the ford guys use on there 4R70W 4speed AT trannys. If your not familiar with it here is the link to it.
VALVE BODY MODIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS
OK, so I ordered the blue plate special 3-4 clutch pack, the carbon fiber band, and a new drum from PATC. I ordered a master rebuild kit and Raybestos steels from OPT.
Am I missing anything besides fluid, a filter, and a better temper?
the filter comes in the ++ kit. What PN did you order from OPT?
Ptm-p5100lls++ (master Rebuild Kit)
Ptm-p5100l-9 (steel Plate Kit)
I have a brand new trans-go seperator plate if you want it. free plus shipping.
I'll bring the beer!!!! :)
Well got most of it done. Left the upper 4 bell housing bolts for another night. The fuel line bracket on the left is a 13mm I beliebe but I couldn't for the life of me get it loose. Gotta use about 3 extensions to get on it and it just wasn't coming off. Socket kept slipping, yada, yada. Anyway, after that it's just the trans cooler lines and it's ready to go.
I would kill for some ratchet wrenches.
Should have driven it up here in 2nd gear. Could have had it out in 20 minutes....yet the 3 hour drive would have sucked.
remove the crossmember and tilt the engine and trans downward to access the top bolts from below with extensions.
Yep. He speaks the truth. Never heard of trying from the top until Tyler (the missing guy) spoke of such.
It was probably him that tightened them when we put the engine in. :laugh:
Yeah he's good at tightening things...Had to put a breaker on to get the starter bolts out. :lol:
Moze you can grab those bolts from the bottom with long extension, helps to have deep swivel sockets from mac or snap-on. Or you can get at them from the engine bay. Both methods require the back of the tranny to be let down as much as possible. With the long extension get almost to the back of the trans and pop your head up with a light and you will see them clearly. from the engine bay it is blind feeling with your hands. Last time I pulled my trans I found out I am not as strong as I used to be!! I got a nice swollen nose to show for my underestimation!
Also what is your address?
impact and some long ass extentions MOZEy works everytime...
long extensions spring with an impact absorbing all the torque. Gotta use pure ol american muscle power. :rock:
Going to Harbor Freight after work - hopefully they have something.
Be sure and get 6 point sockets....12 points slip like a bitch!
If your extensions are absorbing all of the torque from ur impact then u have a wimpy impact.. CP Turbo 2.0 baby 800 foot pounds of torque gets it every time....
dayum! 3/4" drive?
My 1/2" IR only has 650 ft/lbs. I also have its little brother in the 3/8" size. Hahaha. I use a 20" extension and my 3/8" impact with a 13mm shallow impact wobble from Snap-On. I also have a deep 15mm wobble for the bell housing studs.
I picked up a 24" extension and already have 6 points, so hopefully that will do the job.
Nope my CP Turbo is 1/2" is the baddest thing out when i bought it. Paid 235 dollars for it. I use two 18 inch long 3/8 extentions with a 1/2 to 3/8 reducer and my impact and it works great and a impact wobble if needed..... O yea I HATE BUYING CHEAP TOOLS they just dont get the job done......
Down to the last bolt on top...taking a dinner break then gonna go try again.
Once again, I use my 3/8" impact for those nuts and studs.
LOL
It's off. The top middle was the hardest. In the end, I went in the engine bay, put the 13mm socket and a ratchet on it, then climbed underneath and was able to push upward and break it loose. Fron there I had enough clearance to get the 15mm on the main bolt. Came right out.
I am NOT looking forward to putting it back in. :sad:
that sucks man,I just had the tranny in the tbss out and back in in like 2.5 hours.lol
So it's on the floor?
