Here is some added information if you allready have viscous coupler eliminator. Jack front car up and put lifts underneath control arms, but leave the lift on transmission side of car higher because you dont want 5th gear synchro falling off when doing this. Remove wheel, remove or unbolt the the cover from transaxle assembly or the end of transmission which you will understand when you remove your wheel. I think there are 10-13 and 3 are long. Use flat head screw driver to pry open. Let fluid drop in pan. Difficult part is removing clip. This is where I can show you a quick tip to make easy and you will not break otherwise just work it around with small flat head and it should eventually snap off. Slide viscous off. Install viscous coupler eliminator and install clip back on. Use razor blade to remove rtv, dry, then apply new rtv high temp silicone about 1/4 bead around cover. Carefully install cover so 5th gear synchro does not fall. Ft pound torque bolts down to spec. Use hand pump to add new transmission fluid back. You can get cheap fluid pump at auto store. The plug is in front of transmission or when facing front of car on that side of transmission. I think it is 17mm or 19mm. Once fluid overflows that is enough. Re-install wheel and ft pound torque and your done. If you drive recklessly with viscous eliminated you will do extreme damage to transmission, so even though you will like the 50/50 traction only good for straight line so be careful driving to dyno. AGAIN, HOPEFULLY THIS INFO HELPS.
