Going 5 speed this weekend. Any tips?

Post by alcyone »

Hey kids-

I've done the searches, read the how-to's, and I think i'm ready to go! I've got a 93 touring wagon (which ive been driving around with no reverse since june!!) and i've got a 94 ss donor car for the trans and other bits. I'm going to go with a new OE clutch and i'm planning on replacing the shifter bushings at the same time.

I guess what i'm asking is, does anyone have any last-minute tips? I'll be making a photo how-to as i'm doing this, so future swappers will have it a little easier.

Cheers,

Mike
