1970 Gear Change / Transmission Swap

[ecbert]

Ok, back on this project again (finally). Everything is pretty much cleaned up, found all the necessary parts and ordered all the bearings / seals. The carrier is back together and I'm working on the pinion support.

In the process of making a fixture to hold the T170 housing so I can easily work on it using my engine stand. 3/8 thick high tensile steel with triangular braces to help keep it from folding up on me! This drop out third member is very heavy! I figured out the bolt pattern for the carrier housing (it's not uniform, aka it's not perfectly round) and I will post pictures of the completed unit holding the carrier during final assembly.
