Good luck with that crank pulley bolt. I needed a breaker bar (1/2", 3 foot long) with a long extension and still a lot of effort to break it loose. I figured somewhere around 300-400 ft-lbs.

If you were close by, I'd sell you my old tranny. But you are about as far away from me as you can get.
Status check...

I took the car and got it on the lift. I got the crank bolt loose, which was really easy, and put the wheel back on. I used an impact gun on the lugs and destroyed a lug nut/stud. So, I got the car home and needed to cut the lug off. The stud spins, so I need a new one. I'll press one in today when I press in out and in the LCA bushings.



Timing belt is done. More details to follow.
