Title: 5 speed install TOMORROW !!!
Post by: vinnietbird on August 01, 2008, 03:24:25 PM
Wish me and the Sport luck for tomorrow.I've got everything ready and my buddy is coming by after work to pick up the tranny and all the bits and pieces for tomorrow.I'll drive down to his place (he has more room) and well get the tranny swapped in the morning.I'm a little excited.

You mean it's not in yet?
what have you been doing all week? Workin?
I need lots of pics. How about a step by step install with pics.
It could help out us slower folk that don't know much about it. and want to do it someday.

I have really been slacking.I've let my job get in the way of the Sport's needs.What was I thinking.As far as pictures,I just bought new batteries for the old digi camera (Gayle won't let me take the new one).I'll do the best I can to take pictures.Once I get started working,it's often times hard to stop.I will be taking pictures,though.Everything is boxed up and ready to go.A friend is coming by soon to pick it all up and take it to his house for the big swap tomorrow.I hope I'm doing the right thing letting the AOD go.

I'm leaving in about 15 minutes to do the swap.Pics and the story when I get home.The only question I've thought about were the bell housing bolts.Are they the same between the two?
