LOL...gutter thread...are you putting a mustang gearbox in you rx7..i have heard of this conversion (shooting the **** with some old skool street racers) and what are its benefits. Other than a stronger gearset. I only know hewland's..but they are way to expensive for me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/violin.gif

Speaking of wrenches I hope you invest in a nice Gear Wrench to get that tranny out, youll never use normal wrenches again.

The tranny is out, take me about 40 minutes yank one at this point... I have done a few. I use air tools, screw the wrench **** https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



But I do have a set of the gear wrench stubbies and longs.[/quote]

You can get to all the bolts with air tools on the bellhousing?

Yup, got a little 3/8 in drive impact and a u-joint! Gotta have a u-joint, then a scredriver for the funky bolt at the top and you need a nice long extension.

Ah, only time I came close to the transmission on one of these was when Jim was putting the engine in my other convertible and I helped him snug the bolts up.

when i replaced my clutch it took me 2 days to put my tranny back in. im such a loser

phinsup 12-06-2002 02:32 PM

Yea like I say, I have done it a few times, I have the removal to under an hour and it takes me about an hour or so to get it back in.

Rob x-7 12-06-2002 02:32 PM

Jim throws them in and out like a set of spark plugs, he doesnt even use a jack, lol
