I'm trying to drop my tranny on my 92 yota I have the almost everything off except for the top two bolt, does anyone have tips or advice as to get to the bolts to remove them??? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

 

So nobody has no info on this???

 

Pull the exhaust pipe off the manifold then pull the trans crossmember & shifter and drop it down. That will let you use about 3' of extension to get up to it easily.

 

Ok thanks I'll give that a try annd see what happens

 

extensions with wobble heads

 

I've seen pics somewhere of someone drilling 2 holes thru the firewall and then installing rubber plugs after the work is done....


For reals tho, wobble head 17mm socket or regular short 17mm socket and universal joint on a 2'-3' extension should do the trick.

*Tip: Leave the 2- 17mm bolts on the 3 and 9 o-clock position in until you take off the 2 top ones...

**Advice: If your question doesnt get answered in a couple hours dont get impatient man. Most of us on here are willing to help out whenever we get the chance too... just sayin...

 

Yeah sorry if I got impatient I just really needed to get this thing done so I can be able to get to work, im going to finish trying to get this tranny out on Sunday,thanks for the advice wish me luck

 

Dropping the trans crossmember and using a long extension with some sort of wobbler is easiest. I take those 2 out first so you can cheat and spin em out my finger if needed.

 

dude, I always just use a regular wrench, now that I have ratchet wrenches I will use those, but its simple, I was never able to get a socket on it though...

 

No worries man, if you need something asap just say so in the title or do what i do and use the post icons below vvvv...

Good luck! Take your time, don't rush it and you'll be fine...

 

Ok well I finally got my tranny out and this is what I found when I pulled the clutch out, just got to get a flywheel then pit it all back together again

 

Someone got their monies worth on that clutch! Damn, i've never seen one worn that far thru.... It's definitely done!

 

Dang that is one wasted clutch. I've seen them shredded to ribbons and discs with busted hubs etc heck the last one I pulled was fine other than the pressure plate being blue and purple and the hub of the disc being purple and the springs having zero tension left in them from being over heated to hell due to the kid that owned it adjusting the clutch till it slipped at idle. The flywheel was shattered too, surprised it didn't explode.

 

Just wanted to say thanks for your guys help finally got my tranny put back together and is running just fine, thanks for the help
