Ile ask my bro Tommorrow for ya he's a gear box spilisest never done anything else 40 years he's been st it hes wiped mine out a couple of times hope fully some will give you the info tonight but I've got to collect his recovery truck to go and hopefully fetch that crew cab
Generally, very hard, and more noticeably heavy, especially if it lands on your feet. But aside from that, theres not a lot that holds them in, so easy peasy.
i do it with the engine out, i sit facing the bellhousing and put my legs under the gearbox and support it with my knees while I take the last bolts off, and just lower. easy.
oh that what that strand of wire is, i was going to use it as a tooth pick!! Seriously though, the engines out and I could do with doing the rod bushes so I think its a must
oh never ever though of that, it will be fine i tell myself, even though taken the engine out today and the biggest hassle was a poxy tinware screw!!!
Engine out first Its easy but you will end up with a greasy ring on your t shirt/jumper as you carry it away You will also wonder why its leaking all of a sudden when you stand it on end The best thing to clean it with is cif bathroom foam spray Before During After After para magic My ocd brain and painting hands are available to rent if the moneys right
It's always the small stuff Clean your bolt heads of oily crap, use the right shaped key, and they're off...
Depends who's been fiddling. Either Allen or Tri-square (folk like JK or even Hellfrauds will sell you one). An allen key can be made to fit both at a pinch, as I recall.
