We had it handing by the top 3 tranny bolts and no way to break them when we had to start putting it all back together cause I need a car. I'm not looking forward to doing this shit again, but it has to be done, and I need to change my clutch anyway.
Anyone know how to repressurize the clutch peddle? That was all I lacked having everything reassembled last night.
Sephitrask,
Thanks for the offer... I'm in Tennessee though.
I'll take any help I can get though to keep this process from taking 5 days again... there's no reason that it should have taken this long... It's just a bitch with hand tools, and trying to "make due" with a very limited selection. I need a 3ft extension and a wobble socket to get to the tranny bolts easier for next time.

What do you mean by "repressurize" the clutch pedal? you mean as in bleeding it out so it doesn't hit the floor instantly when you push on it? When I had to replace my clutch master cylinder I bled it out at the point were the line going to the slave cylinder connects, cause I didn't want to deal with the slave cylinder. However, if you had the whole thing apart, bleed it from the slave. below is a link to the factory service manual on that. The only thing I would add it to unbolt the slave from the transmission and the bracket holding the line, it will make the process MUCH easier.
