How?



As you know... Engine is out, but I'd like to put the motor and tranny together BEFORE I re-install it...



I know I have to take off the PPF, but how do I undo the driveshaft from the tranny? Tanks!

Van, Leslie wanted to kill me when I had that red car on the side of my house with the tranny fliud all over the place.

It smelled like *** for four months straight.

Well, can't I drain it first? Or is there more hidden in there?

Draining it will "help"...but it still will smell quite "STINK"...in the words of my wife.

I just left it in the car. Its kinda rough getting the input shaft into the clutch/pilot bearing, but I didn't want to pull the trans then put it right back in.



I say leave it in
