Subject:Tranny Swap this weekend...
From:David Bohannan
Date:Thu, 25 Jan 2007 15:40:19 -0500

I am planning on switching out my whiny tranny with one in my other bus
until I can afford to buy the rebuild...I don't want to kill the core!

In any case, I have pulled the tranny once, but don't really remember how
long it took...is it do-able to pull both and install both in one day for
one guy? Weather shouldn't be an issue unless it rains...both vehicles will
be on conrcrete and on ramps...I have a pretty decent place to do this...

Any recommendations? I don't have a tranny jack but was thinking about using
the tranny jack adapter...or renting one...

I am just most concerned with getting it done in one day...I can't imagine
it not being do-able unless I run into some schtuck bolts- and I know on one
of them that since I had the tranny out just 2 years ago, that shouldn't be
an issue...
