for those in the know, how hard is it for someone who has never torn into a transaxle, but has a modicum of mechanical aptitude, to rebuild one? can it be done with standard hand tools and a bench or would the new tool investment make it more worthwhile to have brad build one up and ship it out east? just curious. have area available for work and would like to have a mechanical project, engine or trany, but not waste my time or rapidly diminishing $......
thanks....... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

You will need a deep 30mm socket to remove the speedo drive/large nut (same as used on rear stub axle nut)
You will need a long skinny punch for the role pin in the end of the input shaft. You need some way to hold the splines on the input shaft for re-torquing everything (we weld a center from a old clutch disc onto a long cheat bar) You will also need a way to remove the dog teeth from the gears. Some come off easy..some are a pain. I use the Porsche tool to remove them.. some people use a cutoff wheel. I do it in 3 minutes with the proper tool... others will take 4 hours trying to cut them off and NOT damage the gear in the process. B |
