Dear Chris Mullet,

Hope you're well. As to "little work room", I'm entitled to make British-style understatements, for reasons beyond the scope of this discussions.

I have "small" hands, so did not have to lower the tranny, as you sagely suggest can be done, to improve access. Even so, installing these bushings is not easy.

One other point, anent lowering the tranny: the tranny's coolant fluid pipes are pretty firmly secured at various points. I'd want to be sure that those connections are not stressed - where they enter the tranny housing - when the tranny is lowered. If need be, I'd free the fluid coolant pipes, from any anchorage, that limits their flexibility.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook
