About dropping this trans....

[KillNThrill24]

^I'm opening a "KillNThrill's revival fund" if anyone is interested in donating LOL. Sorry MC if plans change believe me you guys will be the first to know, but as of right now I'm not making the money I had be making previously, and owe my parents too much to ask them for more. I already asked, they said they would put off replacing the roof on the house, I felt bad, and decided no **** that I'm not about to be "that guy" lol. We'll see what happens man...

[KillNThrill24]

Yeah lol my parents are real cool about it but I'm not about to take money they set aside for a new roof ya know? Guess I'm joining that under a tarp Club for awhile LOL

Reading this thread made me really happy I have a 5.0L. I'm pretty sure I had my T5 dropped out in about an hour.

I'm one of the few happy 4.6 guys in the trans removal department since my Cobra has a Viper T56 with the removable bell housing, so like a T5, dropping a T56 is a breeze.

so the easiest/ best way to drop a t-5 is to separate the tranny from the bellhousing then remove the bellhousing?

 

[KillNThrill24]

^Sure looks that way.

Damn fellas screw this T45 crap haha. Those T5's look SO much easier

 

[duh09]

I'm pretty sure I took mine out, bellhousing and all in one move. Don't remember though, it's been quite a few months ago.

I always separate it . I change my clutch in a couple hours

 

[jmahle67]

can u change the clutch/ get to the rear main with the bellhousing still on?

 

[Blakonblak94]

Negative, the bell housing has to be pulled to remove the clutch.

No, but it makes it a lot easier to disassemble/reassembly when you're not trying to line up a bellhousing and input splines at the same time.

damn that starter bolt. i rounded the snot out of it. i may have to pull the engine cuz i dont think im gonna be able to get it out.

 

[MustangChris]

[jmahle67]
