Transmission is
OUT. It only took me about 1 & 1/2 hours to do and it finally came out! No problems whatsoever. The only minor problem was my trani jack wouldn't go low enough to slide out from under the car, so I improvised and slid my creeper up against the trani jack and slid the trani onto my creeper and bingo, out she came.
Couple of questions:
Where on my trani would it indicate it's a 727 or anything else for that matter? The book says it should be stamped clearly, but as you can see from the pics, I get a different set of numbers. Also, what are the long sequence of numbers next to the trani-pan?
At any rate, it's out and I'm phsyc'd!
Here's some pics of what I did tonight. You can see some of the markings on the bell housing and tourque converter and just above the trani-pan. I also took pics of my bench where I'll be dissasembling it in the next couple of days. You'll notice there's a Chysler symbol stamped on the body of the trani, I circled it in red. Thought that was pretty cool.
TTM, I'm taking it I will need to fasten my dial indicator to the bell housing in order to get an accurate reading of my end play, correct? Also, I plan to start tearing this thing down on Friday night, any tips/pointers other than measuring end play first?
