well above question for 89 manual. I'm swapping to a new tranny and 3.55 gears. Just need to know about how long and any tips/suggestions before I tear into it!
Thanks!
 
I've seen a whole swap done in about 4 hours by 2 experienced members who know their stuff. As for me, I have pulled and installed my AODs about 1/2 dozen times. It now takes me about 12 hours to remove/install one working by myself. I always pull the 1/2 shafts and drop the diff way down to get enough clearance to pull the driveshaft back. The 1st time I ever did this, it took about 16 total. That included the time to swap the diff, replace the ujoints and rear main seal. :cool:
