Stuart don't forget to put Trans fluid in the transmission before you set it back on the ground.

That would be bad...

Maybe you sould go put a note on the windshield today as a reminder so you don't get excited and start the car  :2thumbs: that would be bad

Nothing frustrates me more than not taking enough pics while working on my car.









You obviously do not experience this issue.







Great thread Stuart, if I ever do this swap, this thread is where I will look.

Are you sure your lines are hooked up right?  Is there a bevel on their like on brake lines?  I'm wondering if maybe one fitting might be a 45* and another 37* or something similar.

Maybe a fitting needs some sealant of some sort on it? :shruggy:

moparstuart

well hopefully third times a charm

  third throw out bearing goes in saturday

 american power train also made us a spacer  to push the throw out further so the bearing will engage the clutch before
reaching the end of it throw and leaking

Tony went back to the drawing board and made a new B-body / viper to T-56 tranny crossmember
this one butts upto and bolts behind the current tranny/ torsion bar crossmember . This allow you to cut out the center of the tunnel and support then bolt this up behind whats left .
