Help on pulling auto trans from Jyard for a 240

posted by  someone claiming to be robert2 on  Thu Jun 9 14:29 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Okay how high does the car have to be for the filler tube to clear the underside? Can I turn the trans on its side to pull it out from under the car? The Junkyard does not allow jacks in it and they have their cars already raised up a bit... but sometimes not enough.
Do I need to undo the engine mounts for the motor and trans to drop? If I buy one of those swivel haed gear wrench's will it reach any of the hard to get bell housing bolts? and if so should I get a 17 or a 19mm one? Will all of the 740 trannys have the right pickup for my speedo or do I have to watch the years on those as well? There always seems to be more decent 740's in the yard than newer 240's which is why I assume that I will be pulling from a 740. Will the torque converter be trying to jump forward because of pressure, or would it slip off if assisted only by gravity? I mean like do I have to grab it before it shoots out or just make sure I secure it before it can slip off? I have done this with manual trans's before but never an auto, and the auto really seems more complicated!
Thank you for the much needed assistance.
