Ron,
Working under dashes is fun isn't it? After 5 back surguries I don't look
forward to it but can if need be. You are way better than I am with
transmissions. I got mine back in today - about 4 hours. I have the car
on jackstands so not enough clearance for a motorcycle jack but once I
built a small wood cradle to fit on a floor jack I was able to get it in ok.
If there is a next time I'm sure I can do it a bit faster. Last time I did
one (changed the clutch and pressure plate) was back in the 60's on
a girl friends '59 Chev (6 cylinder). Gee, the time do fly!
