Anyone replace one yet?
Im hoping I'll be taking on the job tomorrow (if I can get the parts at the dealership).
Any tips would be nice

you might want to replace a few other easily accessible bearings and then maybe the seals as well, also just keep track of how the mainshaft/countershaft/shift fork assembly all go together as well as how the little shift arms should be. and clean the magnet.

and go ahead and throw in a quaife ;)

Think I should just replace the clutch while Im there too? (Just an exedy oe spec off ebay)
Im almost positive its the OG clutch.

(Today I clicked over to 90k miles!)

Bought one last night ($65 on ebay...blew my mind).

Do I need to seal the tranny after Im done? Liquid gasket?

its called liquid gasket the part # is 08718-0001 the allen wrench you'll need is a 8mm, which you use to take out the sealing bolt that lets you access the snap ring.

Crap...I didnt know hondabond was $12!
Cant I pick some similar sealant at autozone?

Edit**
Confirmed that HondaBond is Permatex Ultra Grey...The Permatex is less than $5.

How many of you can get friction modified tranny fluid OUTSIDE the GM dealer?
I went to 4 stores and none of them carried it. You'd think here, of all places, would have it in every store.

Because lucas sells something that totally destroys oil, I refuse to buy anything from them.
Forget it...I'll use the honda mtf

Well its not bad, and its a 'sometimes' thing. I REALLY dont want to pay $13+ a bottle for it.

it only takes 2 quarts i think, and voila your grind will vanish. c'mon EVERYone is doing it, don't be a square, ahahhahaha.

Total L7, I know...
I already HAVE the honda mtf though...Ive got at least 1gallon of it left over from the last "group tranny flush" that my friends and I did last spring. (The guy that bought it thought it was 4qts each.)

FINE...I'll hunt some down tomorrow....

won't you like not having the grind? save the other fluid for your swap.
