okay, so i dug into it tonight, almost got all the way through the initial take down.
as you can see i bent one of the tubes trying to get it out, i will need a new on of those at some point....oops. this transmission is very nasty, stinky, and again nasty!
i don't know if you can tell from to pics but it looks like the insides were painted black at some point or when it was new. i don't really know. kinda silly i would say since the trans fluid will eat the paint and obviously it has.
on of the bands was worn badly, the other seemed decent. any ideas on how to take those tubes out, in the manual it shows the guy using a pair of needle nose pliers......well that isn't happening! i really don't want to mess up the ones going to the trans fluid pump. that is the step i stopped at, because i can't seem to get them to budge at all.
the bell housing was held on by all AP nuts and only one castle headed nut, which i thought was strange.
sorry for all the pictures, but i really really wanted to document this, i have more, but these are the basic ones.
thanks,
Hank
