OK so I am preparing for the good doctors clinic. My trans is pretty clean so no pressure washing or other cleaning was required. The oil was drained and was fairly clean but only because it was almost empty when I purchased it and it now has less than 1,000 miles on the new oil. Got my seal set in hand along with a few extra parts I have on hand for the transmission.
I thought I had a noise in the ring gear that the Dr. said could be the ring gear carrier bearings. Pulled the side plate off and the bearings were noticeably scored and darker on one side so I have new ones ready to go in. Sorry I forgot to take a picture. But the ring gear and pinion seem to be in good shape. So I am just waiting for the opening to find out if there is anything else wrong. So getting to the point finally. What all to bring? The Dr. said bring basic tools which I would take to be the standard metric wrench and socket set of common sizes up to 19 mm, the standard screw drivers, pliers, BFH, adjustable wrench, seal puller, and a set of punches. I am bringing a pack of cleaning rags (the 100 pack), zip lock bags for parts, lots of disposable gloves, cleaning spray, hand cleaner, and I will have extra tyvek suites if anyone needs one for the build. Oh and beer. I guess I am wondering if we will have bench space to work on or if we will be working on the ground? Also do we need any special sealants? So can anyone think of anything else we may need? I am sure I am missing a few important things? Looking forward to seeing everyone. |
