Your shifter sits between your front seats like everyone else's...

ah-ha... ah-ha... ha...





so, i got my flywheel back, put the puller to good use (bearing came out), and rear oil seal housing is off. good stopping point for tonight.

anything else? nope. but i will need to go home and grab the last bit of stuff from marlin, "out for delivery" right now.

sweet.

so it's been a bit more of a pain than anticipated, so the tranny gets bolted in tomorrow.

plan for getting it lined up: bolt the trans mount to the cross-member, bolt the cross-member to the frame, do not bolt the trans to the mount. that way everything should be fairly lined up (side-to-side, up-down, axially). we shall see.

and i have a few pics from today, i'll upload them a bit later
