It is when Im working haha

 

FTFY

 

Man I wasn't even sure you'd caught that last time

Yeah always worth double checking. Easy fix if it's not...time consuming perhaps but still easy.

 

Unless the bearing is worn out to the point that it is allowing translation of the axle, there should be no need to replace a seal you just installed. Likewise, it would be difficult to damage while installing the axle shaft unless you really screw something up.

 

Yeah it'll be fine. I've removed mine multiple times before for diff stuff and nothing bad has ever happened.


In fact you do it all the time with CV axles too if that helps ease your mind. Basically the same thing, one is just heavier hahaha

 

That's a lot of ATF, I thought it was a typo when the FSM said the pan held up to 9 quarts.

 

Looking bueno so far, can see my four solenoids that are gonna get changed on the left.

 

Why changing them out? Upgrade?

 

Nah, one of my shift solenoids is sticking and the other is high impedance. I figure since I have to drop the pan to change them I'd do the timing solenoid and the lockup one as well.

 

This part takes more patience than I have

 

you bought a parts washer? nice

 

Yeah, the cruiser is getting a piece by piece restoration of the drivetrain. Taking care of every leak and the little things the PO fixed oddly or neglected. I figured a parts washer would help, I wash lots of parts and got tired doing it on the ground on a metal pan. I got this thingy and put it on a furniture mover filled with 10 gals of mineral spirits.

 

very cool! Would love that myself. Some day i'll have a garage big enough

 

This is true, and also why I refuse to buy a house that doesn't have an out building or land to build one. But anything is better than the chicken coop Monte has, it's a garage for ants haha

 

Yeah i'd take anything that would fit a vehicle in it at least right now hahaha


And I know. This is why I will eventually have the 2-3 attached garage and a shop to boot. I have actually gotten to work in a shop that was big enough. Im sure you remember it

 

no shit haha

 

A converted ice rink should be big enough...

 

Plenty of room in those before all the crap goes in

 

I have a good place to work right now, I'm in no hurry to buy a place just to have to move later on. I'm not a realty guy, zero ambition to be a landlord, I don't need any extra debt even if it comes with extra equity. Looking for the right place for me, no one else.
