Tranny is just short for transmission or gearbox.
Fender is the piece between front bumper and door, where the wheel well is. Firewall is between engine bay and cabin. I guess it has to do alot with context. Yeah I think tranny is used over here for transvestite. This post has been edited by Supersprynt: Feb 22, 2005 - 3:37 PM -------------------- |
