    Excellent thanks for that Mark I should sign up with eBay. I have never used them, but they do have a lot of cool stuff for fair prices.

    Didn’t mention I pulled my transmission out with the pallet jack I was also in the dirt so I had a chunk of plywood laid down over the dirt. Then I leveled out a transmission with a couple of pieces of wood. I was by myself. I got very lucky transmission pulled right out straight and went right back in After I change the clutch again. I don’t know if I could do it by myself now. At 68 I haven’t got anywhere near the strength I used to at 39.

    Oh, by the way, Paul that hand jive caper probably would’ve worked when I was around 27 I was quite the bull nowadays not so sure about lifting anything. I don’t even know how I’m gonna get the doors off that thing when it gets to it.
