setup to simply transmission removal

<< < (2/2)

wideopen231:
Been trying to design a craddle that will allow me to slide trans back and pisck up or sit dwon and slide forward. Hoping someone had a design I could cheat and work off of.LOL

e-drag:
I would lose those diagonals!  Sheldon Gecker gave me the same advise at the winternats one time after watching my pitiful attempt at a quick tranny swap and lifting the dang thing rather than dropping it out the bottom

slingshot383:
I second lose that diagonal, wrong place for it, in the bay behind the transmission is OK, but not where you want to drop the tranny, unless it is removable style.

wideopen231:
My diagnols are removable and they are behind trans enough to allow dropping past them. They are issue with building a cradle.  Picking up is easier than wrestling down and out. Plus crossbar is bolted in and flips to right with one quick pin.

Yes been a while since I checked thread/
