I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

No. Not heat it and pound it. Burn it out, but watch when the grease gets hot. You'll get some fire.

well i bought a pickle bar today $9.99 at cut rate auto parts, tried that approach for 10 - 15 minutes then decided fuck it, i gotta replace that lower ball joint ne way cuz it's mushroomed out way beyond re tapping and dying so i went out and bought 2 metal blades for my sawsal or reciprocating saw what ever u wanna call it and cut the fucker off. Now the axles are completely out there is a big ass floor jack under the tranny and another smaller floor jack under neith the oil pan with a 2x4 centered on it to equally distribute the weight of the motor and there is only 2 little tranny mounts left that are holding the bish in and it will be officially pulled tomorrow more then likely! and it's about damn time! now the fun part, adding everything for the manual swap :-D here comes more headache!
