    looks like my dads guna pull an engin and trany from the recors

    the 4th gear parts were completly seased together and the bearing on the case above 4th was seased and the center pops out of place also looks like there was water in the trany again. the trany had been miking a sl;igh grind when going into 1st and 3rd gear every once and a while thought the bolt on 5th gear was loose so we tighend it the nite befor. anyhow the shafts are completly worn out were 5th gear goes stupid desing flaw

    anyhow my dad tells me he put the car in nutral whent to open the gate and the car moved foraward on its own and bang into my 72 145s no damig to either car tg resulting in the trany jaming any one ever seen or herd of this happenign befor?


    the trany blew up in winter of 93 after the car was submerged for the second time in its life that was my dads fualt did not check the trany for water cause the engin did not have water in it. the water froz and the severa hunks of gear broke and it jamed.

    get some pics when i get home from school least this site is not blocked

    well we put the trany back on took like 4 hours to get it to line up and go in

    still have to put most of the mounts back on we took off. we replaced the one of the botem of the trany the old one was smashed up also we put on the rock gard on the botem that goes between the trany and the block.

    bit sore but hopefully we will get her back on the road tomarow
