How long total to pull the engine and tranny? What a spotlessly clean job - you should've seen my garage when I was done pulling mine.
Man, I wish there was a mobile werks north to help fix whatever's wrong with my tranny!!

Not of the garage floor all covered in tools, grease and beer bottles! Just all the pics of the tranny in pieces, and a whole boatload of questions.

That's an impressive time. Mine was my first time, and was about 8 hours, including a dinner break. That also included separating engine and tranny and removing the clutch, and a quick tidy up.
Looks like I'll have to drop it again due to some weird noises in the differential, and I expect this time it'll be much faster. Damn well better be!

[QUOTE=Christien;3989400]What a spotlessly clean job -
The maids I hired to clean after Jimmy are out of the shot.... Besides, their outfits would probably get this thread closed.
