TO bearing question
 

my tranny is in the car, the engine isnt

i unbolted the bolt on the arm of the TO bearing to slide the pin out so i can replace it, but now it shifted so i cant get the bolt back in, and i cant slide that arm/pin out to replace the TO bearing

anyone have any suggestions? that DONT require dropping the tranny

Re: TO bearing question
 

can you try and line it up with a drift or somthing like that to get it close?

Re: TO bearing question
 

couldnt find mine tonight, im gonna try tomorrow.. but i'd prefer to change the TO bearing and use the new one i got with the clutch kit before i put the motor back in

Re: TO bearing question
 

if your engine is out undo the 6 bolts holding your tranny in and look at it on as table, and fot the to bearing iv always just poped the spring off and on, never undo any bolt?

god damnit... i shoot myself in the foot as usual... i wanted to avoid takeing the tranny out because i dont have a cherry picker and i dont want to mess with the axles... i'll see if i can persude that bolt in tomorrow :l

remove radiator to slide the cross shaft out to change the TO.

once slid back in, lift up on the clutch arm to align the bolt holes.

undo the shafts drop the car to the floor on a jack undo the engine mounts, jack the car up and slide the ---- in and out

Re: TO bearing question
 

thats just it, the shaft is stuck and doesnt want to come out

Re: TO bearing question
 

well i got the bolt back in the shaft, never got it out to replace it

do the D-series trannys have to be dropped to change the throw out bearing? i cant understand why they would need to be.. if i cant replace it i'll just reuse the old one i guess

Re: TO bearing question
 

well, if your shaft is stuck, looks like you have to pull your tranny out.................or is it pull your shaft out of the transexual?
