Re: seeking advice RE Wrangler transmission overhaul
 
Hi Mike,
I like to put the trans in two gears, locking the input so I may
rock it back and forth to find the spline. In neutral it just hangs.
Turning the output shaft in gear doesn't work as well for me.

That reminds me most of the drag strips I when to through the
sixties, used dirt pit areas, and the height of the car for weight
transfer was high enough we just crawl underneith swap transmission is
about ten minutes. Many of those four speeds came from the new cars lots
without even jacking the car up.
That God for naugahyde seats, probably another reason there are no
more muscle cars.
