97 3.0 DIY transmission change
I'm thinking about buying a remanufactured tranny for my CL with 175K miles.
Here's one place: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/B7ZA-...Q5fAccessories
Doesn't look like it has a torque converter, will have to check...
I found a few other places, they all seem to be in Arizona for some reason.
Anyways, when swapping out one of these, is it possible/easier to do it without pulling the whole engine? I used to have a little Honda CRX and had that tranny out several times without pulling the motor, just have to be able to jack it up high enough to squeaze it out from under the car. I'm wondering if its the same with this car?
Also, any recommendations for an after market tranny cooler?
Any other recommendations/ideas/opinions?
