My first time, me and a buddy spent 1 hour yanking and pulling and prying on the driver side before we went and bought a slide hammer. There's really no other way around it.

Lumineer Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 When did your transmission start slipping anyway? I know it's been slipping for awhile, but I haven't talked to you in so long, so I don't know the details. It didn't seem to have any problems last time we met, which wasn't THAT long ago.

mra32 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 How can Lumineer quote a post that was made after his without editing his own???? We are in the twilight zone. As far as difficulty of rebuilding a automatic transmission, what does this rate on a 1-10 scale compared to all other car procedures? Isnt it pretty hard?

AWeb80 Posted March 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 LOL....I edited a post via phone and it messed up, so I just deleted it.. in 30 mins, I got the fuel lines unhooked tonight, PS lines, Heater core lines and control arms off tonight. all that's left is the tranny cooler lines and lower mounts.....I'll be doing that Friday. I took the control arms off to do the poly bushing mod on them....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
