Question: I am looking at purchasing Hans shifter and clamp for the torque tube. I am trying to think through the most minimal way of loosening the TT enough to install the clamp.
I am thinking something along the line as this:
Put Engine support brace on to keep engine steady after TT removal
Drop the exhaust
Remove lower bell housing.
Remove the pinch bolt at the clutch side
Remove the 4 bolts at the clutch side (I have some tools without dropping clutch pack)
loosen the transmission mount bolts
Push the transmission back enough to drop the front of the TT down may 30-45 degrees.
Obtain enough access then to install clamp.
Put everything back.
Thoughts?? I wasn't sure if I could get away with this and not undue the cv joints...
