Transmission is fixed!

I gave up on fixing the transmission on the Land Rover, and finally asked for help from Todd over at Columbia Rovers.

He got Jose on it right away, and Jose found a completely severed transmission shaft. After a marathon transmission pulling session, I got the transmission out of my parts truck and to Todd the next day. I really have to get a two post lift like they have. Jose then promptly hooked the new transmission up and drove it onto my trailer.  I did not have all of the parking, swaybars, brakes, shocks, etc hooked up enough to drive it home. 

 

This is the first time I’ve driven it in a long time. Feels really good.

This phase of the project is done.. Now for the “new” ARB bumper, and tightening everything down.  I’m hoping to have it ready for the next meeting.
