    There's a trick to it, of course. You must have figured it out.

    Yeah, I mean hopefully! Pretty sure the trick is to throw it all in at once, not one at a time like I did. The housing bolted on though..must have gotten it

    Re: Forgot to do this

    Okay, getting close to doing this.

    I have my M/T, Starter, Clutch cable, Shift linkage, Resurfaced flywheel, Clutch kit w/release bearing, M/T mount, interior pieces, and Driver's C.V. axle. Installed the pedal assembly the other night (wow so much fun NOT). I ordered some SF rated 10w40 oil to fill the transmission with (Amazon.com: Accel 22601 SAE 10W-40 SF Motor Oil - 1 Quart Bottle (Case of 12): Automotive) and it'll be here tuesday. Basically everything's pretty much ready I just need two days that I'm not already doing something. Just a small update I guess.

    Also, I'm having the grandest-ol-time getting the release bearing installed...I've looked at pictures and schematic drawings of how the spring goes on but I'm just too stupid to figure it out...does anyone have a trick to it? I have no idea what I'm doing wrong

    Figured it out, was just thinking too hard. So simple. Just waiting for an open two day period now and I'll attempt the swap
