We have been around, i had a 240 for a little bit but sold it cuz it was a $-pit, picked up my 1g thru dsmtalk. Dave has torn his galant to pieces about 3 times fixing things, he needs a fwd tranny to get it running. John and derek rarely do anything anymore cept go to school, play halo and get drunk. John goes to the U of M and derek goes to century. I'm intrested in your setup, gime a call i'll pm you my # and we can meet up some time.

LOL. Funny stuff. A bunch of people that attend the UofM and Century just got busted for alcohol in a dorm room party. Oh well..anyway...back on topic. I'm still in the process of planning my very own tranny tear down. Hope all turns out well for me. Not going to happen for another couple of months or so...

tim, you probly will need to replace your blocker rings and the syncros, possibly a few other parts too just to get rid of the grinding, but you never know until you get it apart.

I am just wondering, lets pretend i took apart a perfect working tranny. Could I just then reassemble it correctly and it'd work just as it did before? I'm saying, I wouldnt have to recheck the endplay or anything like that?

I have a working GVR4 tranny in my car now, but there is some play where the CV goes into the diff. I'd like to take it apart and see why there is play? And if it is fucked, I could probably just use the one from my broken tranny.

read more about it, ask knowledgeble people, and just do it.
