Thank you. So much EXCELLENT information here. The FSM is great. Torque settings very useful.
Okay I'll try to repost the relevant stuff with the pics again. Hope I uploaded pics into the proper area of the gallery. Not sure if they should have gone into my personal gallery or to the main forum [TRANSMISSION] gallery?
Again, as per your excellent instructions, I cut a piece of 2x4 to protect the distributor
but found it blocked access to starter bolts and top R bell housing bolt. Since I had a bush bar on the front I used this method instead:
But watch the anchor points. I loaded the red strap mainly then took up the slack on the blue cinch strap around the intake manifold to balance the pull.
As per the rubber tranny plugs... I have two. These are the two that near the top of the tranny closest to the bell housing RED ARROWS I'll get a pic so the forum can see what you are talking about when recommending to make sure these are there...and glued in.
I also added a dab of "ShoeGoo" to the top of these sensors CIRCLED YELLOW because a couple of the wires were bare and starting to look weak. ShoeGoo is more thick and rigid than Liquid Electrical Tape so I thought it would work better.
Now I get to the "3rd plug?" Shouldn't there be one here too?? Near the transfer case? I think I'm missing one here.
Blue gloves and rubber bands work excellent to keep smelly GL4 from escaping!
