Well it is finally happening after two years of prep work and a small battle with cancer, the tranny will move from the dolly, be pared up the 289 and then we can start reassembling the rest of the Bronco. I have two helpers to manhandle it but they have no tranny experience either.
I rebuilt the Dana 20 with the Wild Horses rebuild kit (and aluminum dress kit). Dana 20 is also on the floor. The separator plate has been painted and flex plate bolted in.
My questions are:
1. Should I mount the Dana 20 to the tranny first?
2. I’ve been told to put 2 1/2 quarts of tranny fluid in the torque converter before putting it in the tranny. Correct?
3. Any place I should be putting Locktite besides the flex-plate to torque converter?
4. Any other things to watch out for?
Thanks,
Keith
