im just going to tell you right now, DONT mess anything up! lol
it has to be right, if you dont know what a valve body is, or check ball, clutch packs, ect, then dont do it, seriously,
if you want to be cheap, i bet you can get a used tranny from the J yar ( im sorry im going there) for like 600$ most likely, whatever you decide ill be here to help you, if you need it, just hit me up

 

no, its not, but theres alot of componants, and you got to be clean! lol

originalspanksta has probably the best response as far as the rebuild, i can totally agree with whats hes saying on that

sounds like you done this b4 spanky, lol

 

well for one in that tranny he shouldnt have to mess with the valve body too much so he should be good

 

yeah we've done a few....the first one is the scariest. I always said that there were only 2 things I'd pay someone to do on my cars, rebuild auto tranny's and set up axle Ring and Pinion gears.

Well, that went out the window and we redid a tranny, wasn't as bad as you think it would be, so i guess now i need to try a R&P........

 

lol ring and pinion isnt bad at all either man lol just did mine 2 weeks ago

 

yeah everyone keeps telling me they are easy, i dont know why i find them so intimidating.
motor?-no prob
tranny?-no problem
brakes/suspension?-no prob
metal work? (structural not body work)-no problem

Ring and pinion? scares me.*shrugs* we have all the tools we need, and nothing in the how-to seems terribly difficult, so the next time we need to regear something, i'll probably give it a go......cant learn if you never try, right?

 

i would just inspect parts, and be very observant

 

omg, i love rear ends, lol

okay, that sounded wrong
but i have set up only 3 carriers in my life, and I loved doing it!

cept this one time...

lol stupid mustang, it was my 00 vert GT
and the carrier pin was about to literally fall out of the caseing! So I bought a brand new Eaton locker, and put it in
okay, seriously, this it my biggest mistake ever!
the damn splines on the carrier, were for 31 spline axles!
i had 28! omg, what a frickin reality check! the axle just spun when i put it in, before i even messed with it, iknew it, that
carrier was soo beefy anyways. i really wanted it. (would have fit in my 05)
so needless to say, i had to take it all apart, and put the old one back in, till the next day when the parts place was open again.
i eneded up putting an auburn locker in,

okay, maybe i like the diff work the best lol

plus, i threw in a 4.10:1 gear ratio... talk about torque! awww, now i miss my stang

 

yeah most of my experience comes from 4x4's...this was my last project:

88 2wd 1 ton GMC puickup.
Custom Solid front axle swap. (no bolt in kit here)
dana 60 front w 4.56 and a detroit tru-trac limited slip
GM 14bolt full-float rear, shaved, 4.56 with detroit no-spin locker.
TBI 350, 700R4 Auto tranny, NP241 t-case (ugh..)
Frame shortened 2 feet, Wheelbase shortened to 116"
42" Super swamper TSL's
Mustang GT buckets,
rear shackle flip with 93 1/2 ton springs
custom short flatbed, (never actually finished the floor)
owner installed sunroof.
Cut front fenders...ummmm other stuff too, just cant remember now.


Never actually finished it all the way, i sold it to my buddy for spare parts when i moved to NYC last year.
