Making progress on my transmission repair. Spent a good 5 hrs yesterday working on the truck. First job was to remove a part of the exhaust system. Had been shooting the exhaust header bolts with rust blaster. Need to remove the section with the catalytic converter in it. And I didn't need to break any bolts off in the exhaust header (a common occurrence with something that gets terribly hot, on and off). THAT will make Transmission reinstallation a lot easier. Took the front passenger tire and fender well off to get a good shot at the side of the engine to clean the oil residue from a weeping rear main seal. Last thing yesterday was to drain the engine oil, so when I do the rear main seal, I don't make an oily mess in the driveway.Well it is Tuesday, so'ooo that means bird cage cleaning day.
Take care all, and folks on the east coat, wear a mask, that wildfire smoke is NASTY.
This was a picture from 2020-09-09 @ 9:12am here from our fires. it was VERY eerie, and it smelled like smoke.
