For biggest tard on the pb.

Put the trans on by yourself they said.

Don't be a pussy they said.

Super easy they said.

Well no one mentioned how easy it is to blow out your pilot bearing when trying to shove them together. Or maybe take them apart? Fuck I don't know.

This sets me back at least a week. Jesus fuckin christ

I think it happened when I removed it for the 5rd time. Had back supported and it slipped out, must have caught the lip of bearing and yanked the lip and destroyed it.

Srgn says I have the polish midas touch.. everything turns to shit. He's not wrong
 
Pro tip - put the bushing on the end of the trans input shaft and then install the trans. Instant bushing install.

I feel the need to say that was a joke. Just in case.
 
Be gentle! Holy hell man. Ya get it just right it’ll slide right in, if it doesn’t… You’re doing it wrong 😜

Don’t pull that bitch up with the bolts either! It either slides together or you stop and find out why. Studs help, just grab some bolts and cut the heads off, you likely won’t find studs that size.
 
Use a puller. I know the bread theory but it sucks. Just go rent a puller.
 
In about 45 mins you’ll be back asking why the bearing won’t come out 🤣

I’ve tried grease, bread, none of that shit has ever worked for me. It might for you though! Stranger things have happened.
