finally got it. 5 hours later im finished lol.

man, i thought that was it with the bolt, but after your post i went outside, lied on the floor of my garage and started kicking the ever living shit out of the bar. it was a sight to behold. but it finally broke loose! so thanks for the heads up. i dont usually like kicking the crap out of tools and my car. i thought the whole tranny was going to break off lol.

anyway, after i was finished, whenever i switched gears (ie p-r-d-2-L) it made a slight clicking sound. i filled up the fluid, and it went away for a sec. took it for a spin, but there is still a slight click sometimes. do you have any idea what that is?

when i was putting the drive gear pan back on i did notice a pin sticking out a little bit, just to the bottom left of the top gear. it was preventing the pan from going back on so i pushed it in.

otherwise everything seems to be working great. im going to really test it out tomorrow!
