I drained the lube from the transaxle for the Alien. This came out the drain plug. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

QUOTE(Jeffs9146 @ Aug 24 2010, 11:32 PM)  Yep thats the same thing that happened to mine! It drove fine and it even shifted fine but had a whine that was getting louder quickly! Ya, It sounded like an old truck transmission. How did you fix yours? Just replace the one bearing? My transaxle was rebuilt by Brad Mayeur. I've driven to the WCR in SoCal twice, Atomic Ramble in Huntsville, MEI in Hershey and RRC in Fruita CO. With 350+hp and 255/50/16 rear tires fighting the loss of traction I more than got my money's worth. I was going to ship it back to Brad but I have been too busy to pull it out of the car. I checked the calendar and I'm running out of time to ship it, have it repaired and shipped back to install in the car before Sept. 7th when I have to leave for the RRC in Moab. So with the help of Dr. Evil's video I'm going to under take this adventure. |
