Transmission wont go into reverse

As I said, you'd be better off not touching it. The more shit you mess up, the more it will cost.

Sorry if i want to experience things and fix it myself than have my mom or dad pay for it to get fixed for me.

You need to do a search for the Mitsu transmission repair manual. I think it's on one of the Gallant boards.

I couldnt find anything.

Well, looks like i'm taking the transmission out sunday and shipping it back to mitsubishi graveyard in new york. Hes fixing it for free and paying for shipping so that takes care of it, i did all i could do with the transmission being still in the car.

p.s. dont buy transmission from mitsubishigraveyard.com

My parents have never paid a dollar towards any of my cars. Nice stab.

Lesson one -

Transmission repair :: Remove transmission / transaxle from the car. Takes like 30 minutes

I didnt mean it towards you ^ i dont even know you! I had to take out a school loan to get my tranny. I work on all my cars the only car i have got that i didnt buy broke is my T-bird-only worthy car i have right now. Idk if i can get the tranny out in a half hour since i have to put it back in my small little garage, but i'm pretty sure with my air rachet i can get it done in a hour and ahalf to 2 hours, depends on how many smoke breaks i take.

if you've done it before, an hour is all it should take. Make sure you drain the gear lube before starting. If you don't, when you take out the axles - you will have a godlike gear lube spill and that is about the nastiest fluid to spill from a DSM.

Putting it back in takes me over an hour because I'm not as manly as I should be! I can't really "bench press" it into place like some people on here can :P

Yeah, i cant just push it up there either i sat in the engine bay and lifted it up tho so i could get it aligned 2 people makes it way easier.
