btomskin Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Thanks for the feedback on the tranny.Glad to know Im not the only one.Ive tried all the "easy"fixes to no avail.So now Im thinking the shifter fork is discumbobulated or something to that effect. Soon to my next question.Is there a way to drop the extension off the back of the tranny without dropping the whole thing?Or am I looking at a major progect that will cut into the rebuilding of my wifes sporster before spring? Like before any insight will be much appreciated and gratefully returned when possible. Thanx Again Bryceman(a.k.a.- btomskin) Remember.........Never bet on a three legged horse.

subarubrat Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 A tranny swap is an easy thing to do. If you just go get a spare and do a straight swap then it should take up an afternoon at worse. Short version: Tap out the roll pins on the axle halves Unbolt the driveshaft from the rear diff and pull it out. Drop the tranny Xmember Remove the two lower nuts and the two upper bolts Remove the lower starter nut Undo clutch and speedo cables Undo linkage (2 small bolts) Slide it back and off.

GeneralDisorder Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Yeah - you have to pull the whole thing. The tranny can't be dissasembled without pulling it first. Don't bother dissasembling it either - just get another. That's a headache you don't want to go through. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Perfect steps. Tap out the roll pins on the axle halves Unbolt the driveshaft from the rear diff and pull it out. Drop the tranny Xmember Remove the two lower nuts and the two upper bolts Remove the lower starter nut Undo clutch and speedo cables Undo linkage (2 small bolts) Slide it back and off. The only thing to add is; drain the fluid first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
