^^ no problem dude, good luck!
Alright, finally got back on it today. Today's goal was to replace all the seals on the Getrag 245 and tackle some of the nose section. Got most of it accomplished, however I broke some of the rubber on the input shaft seal because I hammered it a tad too hard. I didn't want to risk it, so I ended up having to order a new one and wait to finish the trans. Was kinda pissed about it at first, but it's a $3 seal, so I had a Jack and Coke with my dad and carried on with my day
Rear shaft seal out:
New rear seal in:
I also replaced the shift rod seal, but didn't take a picture. Then I decided to take my shifter apart and clean it up and regrease everything. One of the previous owners rebuilt the whole shifter assembly not too long ago, so everything was good to go. Just needed a cleaning and regreasing:
Then I tackled some of the nose area of the car. It had a lot of rust/paint corrosion and looked like hell:
Got it all down to bare metal, took sooo long to get it completely rust free:
Then primered it:
I also decided to take care of this whole area:
Prepped everything as good as I could and primered it:
Then I whipped out the ol' reliable 50mm and took a couple pics for fun:
