Thanks civi. Your rebuild is what inspired me to do it myself. I have the manual now and feel confident it will be pretty straight forward. I have and old buddy that is helping me. We both have good mechanical sense so that's a big plus. I was thinking about how to get my trans to stand on it's tail. I work for a hardware company so it shouldn't be a problem making something. Thanks for the tips. I'm actually looking forward to this rebuild.
