Transmission Out

Joey and I were able to get the transmission out without too many issues. The biggest issues we encountered were the rear most power plant frame bolt, and the bushing the is coupled with the bolt directly in front of that bolt.

Once the power plant frame was out of the way, it was a piece of cake. I think we spent more time removing the PPF than we did removing the transmission itself.

The rear main is most definitely leaking. The transmission, well thats an interesting one. The turret drain bolt was most of the way out. So now the question is, was it the output shaft seal and the turret drain leaking? Or just the turret drain. I will just replace the output seal.

 This is the pesky drain bolt. This has been threaded back in since I tool the transmission out.

Turret is practically dry, and nasty dirty

 Think something is leaking?

 Yep... The rear main is leaking. You can actually see a fresh drip if you look closely.

 This is the bushing that we had a hard time getting out. Once it started moving, it moved pretty quickly.

 Flywheel, clutch, and driveshaft.

This is the jack holding up the front of the motor. You can see a tie down strap in the background. We used this in lieu of a transmission jack. It worked very well.

The transmission out and the driver side is mostly cleaned up. This was nasty before it was cleaned up.
