Gearbox with 100k miles ordered from ebay and is currently on its way to Autogearboxes.co.uk in Sussex.

Check the flexplate (flywheel equivalent on an Auto) for cracks which is the main reason I took my gearbox off as I was getting an annoying ticking noise.

The tool, according to the workshop manual, is used to give something to grab onto in order to remove and install the torque converter onto the gearbox.

While it’s out give the transfer box a once over. Check the main mating seal in the middle where the 2 halves. If the box meet. These can weep, also check the bolt on bits such as the hi lo pos sensor aren’t weeping oil. Much easier to swap out when they are off the car. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Removing the Transfer Box certainly makes life easier as I found out after the event!

I received the remanufactured transmission a couple weeks ago, and it came with a bottle of transmission flush to use on the oil cooler. Will replace the transmission cooler thermostat when replacing the transmission.
