Tranny question!!!!

[27rocks]

Do i need to unbolt starter to drop the tranny? it seems like i unbolted everything but its just not coming apart.

It is tight on there, there are several dowell pins. Make sure to support the trans and use a dead blow hammer and or a block of wood and use those to get it moving apart.

Dont use a regular hammer. Use the rubber/plastic type mallet, or the block of wood and a regular sledge hammer.

its not coming out!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i can move it on the fire wall side but its not moving at all towards the front

[talonXracer]

There is a bolt that goes from the starter side into the trans on the front. Make sure the coolant tube is free enough to allow movement(across end of head and trans).

i know i got that out...its the one right under the starter right? Right behind the bracket for the front motor mount.... am i close?

ok im about to start day two lol

Do i have to take the starter off???

[talonXracer]

It wouldnt hurt to unbolt it and pull it out slightly. I know there are more than one thread that has been posted that has pics and directions. Try a search here and the DIY section.
