Transmission

I should be able to get it back in the car this weekend...

 

[Scarpozzi]

Ohh....sorry, I thought you said transvestite.

EDIT: But while I've already posted....I just want to say that I'm jealous of your sweet ride. Let us know how things go when you get the tranny back in.

 

[GasX]

And how does your fiance feel about that?

damn....and you kept it straight on the carpet without putting it on wood or some cardboard or whatever?

 

[Colt45]

im not a redneck, we leave them outside

 

[Radiohead]

No, I would have to say I don't have a transmission in my living room...

Interesting place to store your transmission.

Many years ago I lived in a very bad part of town and I parked my Honda in my livingroom every night.

 

[Heisenberg]

Nope. Closest I come is cylinder heads in the garage.

It was just rebuilt and therefore it's pretty clean, I'm not worried about it getting the carpet dirty

That kinda crap is in the garage for me. interesting though..

 

[Wduaqnug]

your carpet looks like pretty stained clean it cause it collects bacteria, dust and allergies

 

[StageLeft]

Does it work well as a couch?

 

[NutBucket]

My friend has cam shaft lamp and a crank-shaft coffee table in his living room

Not yet, the parents would kill me, and the dorm is just not the sort of place to work on a car. It's weird for me to see a transmission that doesn't have a pair of half-shafts with CV joints coming out of it though. I've only ever worked on transaxle cars (one FWD, two RWD). Must be a lot easier to work on without having the differential in there. U-joints last longer than CV's too.

Oh, and one more thing; I love your car.

I'm afraid of those cars The differential goes in the back, and the transmission goes in the front . I've also never owned a vehicle that wasn't a Front engine, rear drive car.

In response to everyone else:

Haven't tried it as a couch.

The carpet isn't stained, it's just tan.

how do you make a coffee table out of a crank shaft?

And yes, if I had a garage, it would be in the garage.
