a few questions now that i have everything unbolted/mid swap.
1 is the seal/retainer for the pilot re-useable ? & what's it made of, i've got a replacement bearing, but the shops won't be open tomorrow if i mess things up.
2 i'm about to undo the cross member to lower the tranny down, does the engine need any support ? it looks like a worst case scenario would have the valve cover resting against the firewall, i know there's been mention of this big plug on the back of the engine, but i can't forsee any issues with it.
3 any reason not to remove the reverse lockout ? it's just an annoyance to me, but i thought i'd leave it in place until i've taught my gf to drive standard.
4 what about the allen bolt/speedo cable retainer ? i see it in the manual, but no such item on my tranny, nor the replacement, is it needed ?
just 12 more hours 'till i can get back in the garage to finish up my wrenching .. i'm looking forward to moving from tractor noises to older car noises.
thanks
