1859, Anyone want an A/t to M/t writeup
Posted by Slow_AT_Talon, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Okay I'm finally doing it the big swap. The reason I'm doing it now is I was driving for like 150 mi. at about 100mi. an hr. and I guess my diff pin broke from heating up cause I had no external tranny cooler except the stock one. So should I take pics and do a good write up? I already did all the shifter and cables and clutch pedal but none of the panels are back on yet. Everything seems to bolt right up except the clutch fluid reservoir which was a pain but not bad. I can explain everything I did and I remember all the bolt sizes. Also I am going to be selling the current trans. after I get the case welded and a new Differential, Any one want make an offer I put well over $1000 in parts alone!

Don't know whats done to it but it beat a gsx and in 3rd I was pushing
the gas and letting off he couldn't keep up

Do you think we can get VX100 Or CORBIN to put it in the mods section?
I deceided to cut my stock brake pedal instead of putting in the manual one as it was easier so it is semi ghetto but everyone will get the idea and can elaborate as they please from there

They automatically put anything of any decent magnitude in the mods section, and this is something of enormous magnitude

Okay the AT-2-MT is done and feels great. You know my exhaust even sounds different(Greddy) , in fact the whole car feels different, it almost feels reborn. Another thing thats weird is before I changed it I had three CEL's (IAC, MAP,TCU) But now I have none! I will try to start writing everything down within the next couple of days. Meanwhile if anyone needs help with their swap feel free to ask me.

I think this is a very important writeup (assuming that you are very detailed). We'd gladly link to it or host it on 2GNT space. I've been contemplating the swap for a few months now.

Corbin, the swap was really worth it! My car is finally becoming race ready. Python, I have a parts car but most junkyards will cut you a deal like $600 including new computer. Like I said if anyone needs help before I finish my write up please E-mail me at Mysterylectronic@aol.com

Okay Here it is minus the pics. It needs to be polished up but here is the rough draft for all to see. Please E-mail me if you guys get pics or you want to make changes. Also anywhere that says (pic) is where I thought explanation alone wasn't enough. thanks to chamukogs for the space http://www34.brinkster.com/chamukogs/ATtoMTswapWritten%20by%20Mike.htm

ok i think i can handle the shifter assembly and pedal assembly and such the only thing i am worried bout is the trans part. like how do u take the axles out? what are the torque specs for some of the bolts on the trans and mounts. what does the flex plate look like and y do u have to take the exhaust off it looks like it would clear. thanks and very good write up points to you sir.

Sorry I haven't posted but my ex stole my blue 95 talon legally and I saw it coming and did little about it. Python, to take out the axel I normally drop out the (3) 14mm suspension nuts and (2) 17mm A-arm bolts,also don't forget to take off the axel nut first. The flexplate???? no clue, as for the exhaust if you drop out the exhaust it allows the motor to move forward enough so that you can pull your tranny so the differential can clear the crossmember.
anything else?
1967, RE: Here it is A/T to M/T
Posted by Chamuko, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
python IM or email me. I bet if we both do the swap at the same time we can polish this write up nicely. Do you have a digital camera?

Also, there are write ups for rmeoving the axles.

Do you have a parts list?

On the caps program it listsl the nuts and bolts but not their thread size or anything .

so when are you planning on doing this? All im missing is the final word on the rear mount. Caps shows that its the same but i heard from other AT owners that the MT inserts wont work?
