Unlike a TD, you can get the exhaust manifold off without pulling the motor! Not that it's not a lot easier to do now, good catch.

ARRGH! Aye tought so! Its a 98
looked too much like a cable.(from what I could see jeez!!)
But the parts diagrahms are showin a "modular clutch" with hydro tube. Or an 8 1/4 in x15/16in-17 spline unit .But no cable offered!
Just like to see what I'm gettin into...........before its all over the garage floor!
It shouldn't be bad. Basically think of it as a 5 speed with a torque converter instead of a clutch. The converter(modular clutch) bolts to a flywheel, and then the tranny and modular clutch come out like a auto and TC. A much simpler design to R&R. Also it made assembly easier as all motors had a flexplate, and you either attached a auto tranny, or a manual. After the modular clutch is removed, the basically look like any other 568 or 523 inside the bellhousing.
So They are "modular"?
What about a new cable ?
Pt # or source suggestion?
Unless it is broken, I don't know that you would need a new cable. I have 156K miles on mine when the tranny tossed a diff pin, got a new tranny and modular clutch, but kept the same cable.

Two different part numbers showing there.Id go with the last one.I use to have the part number for them and the oil restrictor.I either threw them away or gave them to turboron when I gave him all my neon parts.If you need help getting the trans apart let me know.I also have a spare bell housing for a neon,the last Neon part I own.
Sure, I'll snap a pic tomorrow. PM me your email.
Thanks for the link Craig!
I've requested that this thread be trimmed down to just my posts that detail my updates, as that is the point of a Project Log IMHO I'll post more updates as they come, but for the next few days I won't be doing anything to the car due to other commitments. Stay tuned
It'll be awhile before anything else gets done with this because I'm going to be really busy with some other commitments coming up. It is coming along though, slowly but surely now. Thanks for viewing.
