87 924S Automatic Trans
I'm getting ready to drop the automatic transaxle in my 924S. Do I have to support the car on jack stands or can I leave it sitting on the ramps it's on now? It looks fairly simple to remove and I don't see where I'm going to undo any suspension parts in the process. While out I'll drop the fuel tank to check all the lines and the tank itself to make sure I have no leaks. This is the Final stages of finishing my multi year project and finally being able to drive this car. Any imput is greatly appreciated as this is my first time doing this.

Should not have to remove suspension to take out the transaxle.

Are you aware of any other problems with the tranny?

It leaks. I think it's mostly from the seal at the torque converter. That's why it's so greasy. I did drive it around the block a few times when I first got it started a few years ago. It seemed to shift fine. Iran located all the seals for me and I'm replacing them all.

Are you going to do the flex plate and mess with the torque tube?

I'm not sure yet. I looked inside the bell housing when I was working on the engine side and I didn't see any cracks. I'll take another look with an inspection camera before I get crazy. First I'm pulling the fuel tank and doing new fuel lines
