compare what's on the new tranny with what you have in there now.
Measure the input shaft. Measure the bellhousing. Set the new tranny on the
ground under the old one and get a good eyeball comparison.
DON'T FORGET to look at the nosecone area with the new tranny lying under
the one that's in there. MAKE SURE the front mounts are the same. May have
to swap parts out up there too.
Then put your motor back in and go to work on the "new" tranny since you
have to replace the seals anyway.
Take off the bellhousing. Put it back on. Take it off again.
Do the same with the input shaft. Remove and re-install it a few times
until you are comfortable doing it. Take as many days as you need.
Now, replace all the seals and leave it with he bellousing and input shaft
off.
When you have another free day drop your motor and tranny. Pull the input
shaft and bell housing from yours. Put them on the new tranny. Re-install.
Should only take a few hours if you have everything done that can be before
dropping the old tranny.
