Henn Forums Junkie Location: Rosanna, Melb Registered: June 2002	Re: Taking out 4AC help Mon, 08 November 2004 12:18 With an assortment of spanners... and of course a large hammer. The GB is a bit of a hassle. Just get the car as high as you can on jack stands and ramps. Disconnect battery You may also want to disconnect radiator top hose and exhaust manifold from pipe as the engine can tip back a bit while removing the box, but I'm not sure if this is really necessary. Drain gb oil Undo all cables and wires Remove starter and clutch slave Remove shifter Remove tailshaft Undo all bell housing bolts (top 2 are a hassle to get to , but use a unijoint and a mega long extension bar, or reach in from the top and be prepared to wait a while) Undo gb crossmember but SUPPORT THE BOX (maybe with a scissor jack or helpful sidekick) Importantly, don't let the gb hang on the input shaft once the crossmember is out. Slide box back and catch it Removing a diff is easy although the trailing arm bolts may be tight. No need to drain diff oil, although you can. Just remove the brake line and handbrake cables first. Handbrake cables can be easily removed intact from the bar where it goes from 1 to 2 cables. Remove swaybar (if it has one). Then remove tailshaft. Unbolt panhard rod. Unbolt shocks at bottom eye (diff will now drop down a bit), lever out springs. Then get to work on the 4 trailing arm bolts. Just make sure the diff doesn't fall on your toes. Really it is all common sense. Just do it slowly and carefully. The only points which could be a suprise are making sure everything is removed from the box before dropping it and disconnecting the battery before playing with the starter Now go out to your car and do it.
