A couple of casualities. A broken drive flange expansion bolt. I used the wrong torque spec. And a pinched O-ring

Thanks for putting so much time into documenting the rebuild. It's the best I've seen in terms of photos. Good Luck!

Would it be possible to get this into an Adobe file? Would be a great resource while reassembly of mine.

Dave,

Once again, you've provided a super article. Great photos and narrative. Instant classic. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Thanks so much.

Transmissions are still a mystery to me and will be until I take one apart. Kinda scary. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

Excellent article, Dave.

The key thing to take away from this is that, unlike rebuilding an engine, a transmission is full of parts that all look the same, but aren't the same. It's very important to do something like what he did with the coat hangers so you dont' mix up the order of the parts on the shafts. Some people use a large table and simply place the parts on the table in the order they remove them from the shaft. The nice thing about the coat hanger is that it takes up less space, and there's less chance of some buddy, child, dog, whatever coming along and messing up the order of the parts on the table by accident.

James

The other thing about the coat hanger is that it keeps the orientation of the parts the same. Some things like the cone washers and gears can't be flipped. Even with that I managed to mix up a couple of gears and I didn't catch it until I was trying to put the drive shaft in the intermediate plate.

I label the gears with black felt pen as I take them out, saves on time trying to figure out what is what. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

I just read this entire thread - twice and watched the Dr. Evil video (a few times)

Question @DNhunt , how did the tranny run after all of that work?

Thank you,
