Well, just spent the last 12 hours doing a new tranny swap on my car, i bought the tranny for 120, he didnt know what condition it was in so it was a gamble, second and third gear have a SMALL grind at high rpm's, i used GM syncromesh so that should take care of it, but i have to shower and i'm exhausted cause its 3 AM and i just got in the door

Originally posted by tunermandamn, 12 hours! did you take the motor out or leave it in?
left it in, but my stablilizer bar? i believe its called is frozen so we cnat take it off, so we had to work around it, and it was just a big hassle going back in, we had it out in 2.5 hours, but just going back in took forever, the biggest pain in the ass was getting the slave cylinder back on

I hear you on the slave cylinder thing. LOL!
The radius rod is usually the one that comes out. It is the big bar that runs from the front crossmember to the lower control arm.

ive done two clutches and it was better to just take the tranny out.
for me, its WAY easier to take out the engine/tranny to do a clutch or tranny job. it would take me a lot less time than trying to do it with the engine still in.

Originally posted by HondaFan81What engine, what tranny? Feedback on where you seen the improvement from the original tranny, which was what by the way?
What rpm in 5th gear @ 70 mph, same question for 80mph?
And that is the correct bar, My fault for getting the name wrong.
Dan, the hardest part was just holding it in place while getting the bolts started, It may have been the fact that it was 1:30 in the AM when I had been working on it all day and becoming exhausted that I was having so much trouble lol, But its all done now thankfully, Now I am going to tackle the CMC tomorrow night since that just crapped the bed on me tonight!
