GOT THE TRANNY ON!!!!!

Here are the pics the tranny was a bitch and it took 3 people to put it on two holding the tranny and me making sure the input shaft did not warp or put to much on the clutch disc. It was a real PITA putting the tranny but finally got it to sit right and sit flush with the motor with forcing it on. The clutch fork is also in the very middle which im hoping its suppose to be there right?? Here are the pics im still working on the car but the hardest part was been finished.

The tranny bolted up and with the mount as well. Engine bay looks way better now I painted the engine flat black but just testing it out it looked it looks way better now.





The clutch fork let me know if you guys think it looks right or what do I need to do, everything was torqued down to spec and its a brand new fork and ball and TOB along with a new TOB clip.

ROFL you literally blasted *everything* in the engine bay with black spray paint, didn't u? LOL! BTW, fork looks good. Looks to be pointing a tad towards driver's side which is perfectly fine.

That pic does not justice on how it looks right now. The suspension yeah there are black but im not using that suspension anymore the tranny mount is black but the prothane isnt its just the regular black. The bracket for the tranny mount is powder coat black. The fuel filter is being replaced I dont know what that spider man looking things is lol.

remove that "spider man looking thing", it looks like it's just taking up space......

what is the spider man thing you speak of. the only thing i could pick out that you could be refering to is the brake proportioning valve. dont remove that

Wally finally joined the 5 speed club

Damn! the goof ball has more balls than brasgay!! Good job dude for doing something chingon. Props.

Frank: thanks ive been wanting to join the club for a while lol

Pollo: ive always had more balls then alvin hahaha jk and thanks pollo all this just makes me want to finish it even more. The intermediate shaft was making not want to continue I was stressing it to much with the manager on my ass and then the stupid shaft.


Alright I managed to make the intermediate shaft bolt I didnt end up modifying it for some strange reason today it decided to behave and bolted up perfectly fine??? took some play but I got it on there. Now both axles are up and im around 70 percent done with the swap. Ill post pics later just figured id let you guys know where im at. Once I bolt up the transfer case I can lower the front of the car and begin at the rear which is easy.

I finished the front today tripple checked everything and made sure everything was bolted up and nothing was lose. The whole front of the car is done minus the wiring harnes and intake, piping, tb, and well I guess not completely done haha. Im throwing on the wiring harness right now and the rest of the small stuff.

Here are some pics of the car and my boost leak that I could never find and kept hearing it was normal thats just air passing through the pipes I moved the power steering oil cooler thing to the back instead of leaving it were it was so this wont happen again.

Drive side of the car I forgot how low my car was lol


Passenger side of the car


The boost leak that could never be found

wally I have one of those exact cores on my wall with a shocker symbol painted on it if you want it let me know we can work something out

ALMOST DONE!!

Just need a throttle body and pigtail for the knock sensor from the wiring harness. Somebody hook it up so I can start the car and see what happens .

Time to join the dsmlink club Wally tune your car is the best thing you can ever do to the Dsm

Are you going to change the rear diff gears? Im under the impression that auto and manual transmissions have different gear ratios. Please correct me if i am wrong.
