    Transmission seal leak

    Has anybody dropped the transmission? Reading the TM it talks about a lifting bracket... is it poasble to hook that up with the trans in the truck? This sure would make it simple to use a chain hoist.

    Transmission seal leak

    I got them from Big Mike's motor pool. They are easy to find if you search for "Packard connectors" I saw them on ebay and amazon as well as the electronic supplies places. You can also look them up with the MS number... I used 14 gauge connectors. Link below. You have to cut the terminal...

    I was installing the drive shaft. I wasn't too sure how tight to make the bolts and I stripped one. I sure hope it was the bolt and not the yoke. Man I am not a happy camper. I know why they military went to the bolts with the head that breaks off. I wish I could find those.
