DJ194950 Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 People willing help/teach seem to getting harder to find! I do like pass on anything I know about cars/painting/body work to anyone I know that wants to learn as they do the heavy lifting. This forum is all about doing what can be shared And learned from those you need some help and the people with more experience. I know I read anything about things that I have no knowledge of here even if I really have no particular use of that information to work on that part etc. at this time.

Merle Coggins Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 That's going to be a lot of transmission to handle when installing it to the engine. It may be easier to install in separate pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
