rob,

the sun valley pick a part (pendleton and glenoaks), always has a couple of probes in the primo section. last time i stripped 2 silver ones in almost perfect condition. both gt's, under 130k miles, one auto ane manual. i always have luck there.

hmm. common sense tells me that at the very least, you are going to need:

screwdrivers (standard/phillips)
pliers
sockets/ratchet wrenches (both 1/2" and 3/8" metric, standard and deep)
pry bar

maybe you'll need the socket to remove the shafts, but i don't think so. you should be able to get away with just removing the bolt holding down the steering knuckle to the ball joint/control arm and then swing that out of the way when you pull out the shaft.

I say we grind it out and figure it out later...

i don't think simochewitz wants to wait that long for a transaxle (proper term).

well first of all looks like i'm gonna be out of town this weekend with Mi Familia.
pulling the tranny is gonna require some special stuff. a pitch fork looking thingy that you need to either pry the drivers axle out or pry the outer tie rod from the steering nuckle. all kinds of sockets and ratchets. wrenches(sears). big mallet(harbor freigh). prybar(sears),swear jar(k-mart). theres alot of stuff that needs to be removed when doing it on the ground.

I have till 01/06/05 to get my car fixed. Then I can no longer use my Mom's car to get to work. If I don't find anything this sunday I'll be down for next week as well.

I'm getting a tattoo finished that day, so no go for me.


Ray, i didn't get a call.

Sorry man it was a spur of the moment thing...right before it was closing

Rob, my freind, i think its better that u have a shop do the work on your trans. #1 why? casue it dosent look like u understand what work is envolved in pulling a trans. #2, agian it dosent look like u understand what work is envolved in pulling a trans. pay an extra 300$ and have a shop do it. will save u some migrains

[mac1]

still though Rob, i dont like to work caveman style. on teh ground full of sand, oil, water,shit, etc. on a car with equal amounts of shit. on a weekend that i could be doing my own tranny or s/c install. sorry man it's just not fun.

i was in the same situation as rob was when i had my first car. i needed a new tranny.

so i went to the jy and found one. i had a hell of a time taking it off, but i had a friend help me put it back on the car. its want that hard...better yet it wasnt impossible. btw it was for a ford escort. there are a couple of ways to learn things, and hands on is one of them. he also has friends that know what theyre doing.

youre right on the migraine thing tho

ps. where do you live dude?
