Count me in for these dates. I have one tail shift unit that needs 5th repaired. I also have a spare that I can bring as well. I'm close by if anyone needs a place to ship items in /store items.
Dr Evil
You are on the list.

Alright folks, I am opening up registration for this clinic so contact me to get a seat smile.gif

Dave always threatens to come down.......then he reaches the border and they send him back.

He can't get out of the ward, the gates are locked and his ankle tracking device tends to lock down the facility when he roams outdoors due to an incident with some jelly, a penguin a banana, and the mayor of Toronto.

Hey, does Scotty have a TV in his shop? If it gets really, really boring again, Dave and I will probably just watch a movie.

Cool, I'll order a gasket kit now!

When do I pay?

I guess I better clean and drain the trans soon...

Looking forward to it!
Dr Evil
Eric (cupomeat), you dont pay. You produced and directed my damn DVD. You get freebies for life wink.gif

Bullitt, yes.....unless Matt is reading this, then no.

Is there still room for another ? I have a couple of side shift trannys to check before mating to a 3.0 six. Its always nice to met other gearheads and learn what not to do when building a part up.
Dr Evil
Yup, still room. PM me for payment and reg details.

I am still planning on coming to the clinic. I have a 914-6 with an A,F,N,S,X gearset. The trans is not numbers matching. I appears to be a later model and a side shifter. It has been modified with a 930 LSD and 911SC CV joints modified to fit the axles. There isn't anything wrong with it and it shifts very smoothly. However the S,X is not to my liking.

You had recommended to me in an earlier email of replacing the S,X and going to stock V, ZD or with A,F,O,X Flipped H. Have you got these gear sets and how much would they be.

When do you want the $300?
Dr Evil
Hey Rob,

I just sent out a group PM to those wanting to attend. Thanks for hooking me up with Paul. I hope to get to him soon in Jan. I will see if he will let me pull the other drive trains smile.gif

My gear inventory is always fluctuating and I can see about if I either already have them and they are not spoken for, or if I can find them for you.
type47
How can I/what do I need to do to inspect a trans to see if it's worth rebuilding? I have 2 trans to choose from to bring to the clinic (was hoping root would do one) and would like to avoid a surprise when I'm there...

oh, and icon_bump.gif
Dr Evil
We can rebuild anything. I will bring spare R/P, BUT it would save you time and money to pull the side cover and look at the teeth on the pinion. If one is galled, pick the other. If both are galled, congrats, you need a replacement R/P.
crash914
what? its not tonight? oh well, I will just go to first night Williamsburg...
type47
with this about a month away, time for a icon_bump.gif and maybe propose a GB on gasket set and a question about what tools should we bring ...

... and root, yea you ... time to take a weekend off and go to this ... biggrin.gif
Dr Evil
Regular tools.

I guess we can GB seal kits. I will check with my supplier for cost. At the very least I tend to get free shipping.

I will be leaving on Friday, early also, but depending on how early you leave, you will still be hours ahead of me. Are you driving a teener?

I'm coming as a looky-loo, and to bring Scotty some work. But I can help out, sweep, harass, but I don't clean potties.

No driving the Teener for me. I will have my tranny out to build. But if you are driving yours that far, that will be impressive. Let me know if you need anything on the way if you are bringing your Teener.

I will be in my truck this time, but I have driven a teener that far many times.

What time does this begin?
Dr Evil
9am

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.

I would suggest a folding table.

And a cover, oil will be everywhere. Also, watch the Docs video if you have it.
Make sure you dont lose the back up switch doohickky that falls out when you remove the switch. And count the number of seals when you disassemble, in case Doc forgets to tell you.

HEAD COUNT TIME !!

2 weeks out. We need a head count as there are a couple attendees offering to bring grub so we need to figure out how many to plan on, and I need to figure out how to make you all fit in here. unsure.gif

Bringing my fenders to you, and hanging for a little bit. Not doing the clinic unless Evil needs help disassembling the donor trans.
Can bring Burgers or Brats for lunch, if you have a grill. bye1.gif
