Looking back at this thread, I can't believe I did that !
Has anyone followed my Thread and had everything come out OK ?
The Transmission is still setting on my front porch ! Haven't used it yet.
When I added Motor Oil to the old transmission via that clutch mount hole, my
transmission has worked better and is quiet.
Previous threads of mine were about Transmission Oil Thickness in winter and
advice I had received from a Transmission Rebuild Shop Mechanic.
He had told me to thin the 80 weight oil with some regular Motor Oil and the
transmission would shift better. I added motor oil by topping up the case from
the clutch mounting bracket hole shown in the thread and since then the
transmission runs quieter and shifts great.
What oil to use and how much is controversial and is the subject of big arguments.
What I did was to top the oil up such that the gears were covered all the time.
Look at the photos to see what I mean.
Honestly, I cannot remember hardly anything about that rebuild anymore.
Look thru the photos and diagrams from the Manual for help.
Maybe some of the other guys who commented can help.
All I remember is that it wasn't all that difficult to do any of it.
You need the time and PATIENCE and the tools. Don't rush it !
I remember the SEALS were no problems - just go slowly.
Don't use unreasonable force putting them back in or they bend/deform.
Good luck to you.
