Thank you for all of the helpful responses, I will just plan to treat this as a four gearbox rebuild.
Thanks again for the help.
I just went thru this , did some documentation of it, i do have lots of pictures.
If you dont have all the tools, some you can buy at Pelican, others are specialty made that make the job easier. the one nut on the one gear stack is like 80 ft# torque so you need good leverage to get that off. But i really just used the Video and went step by step, and had some of the factory maintainence manual diagrams and instructions. Some of it is in Haynes too.
Like they all said leave motor in, you can leave the heat exchangers on too, just take muffler off, disconnect the CV's, and wiring cables , speedo cable, clutch cable etc.
basically took a day but now its fresh in my head i think i could do it pretty quickly. I was swapping out the 4& 5 gears , reused my dog teeth and syncro bands , that was all replaced about 8 years ago and was all like new still.
Its a fun project, and i was going to have someone local do it but for $1500 just to swap out gears i was glad i did it myself.
Have fun!!
