tranny change, now working a "how to" Options

[lake1069]

i brought down my tranny today b/c my clutch was gone, and synchos are mess up. while i was doin it i took some pics, maybe they can help someone down the road. best advice do it with a buddy i spent maybe 6-7 hours on it today and still not finish, with a buddy im sure it would have been less. this weekend will be the interesting thing, the 3rd gear synchro has to be replaced. it was only 29.99 from the dealer but im not gonna pay 400 for someone to put it in. that is all of what i left to do b4 i can put the tranny back on. ill take some more pic while i work on that too.
first i jacked up the car and took the axel off( 45 minutes)


took everything that was in the way off and pulled down the tranny(1.5 hour)


took the old clutch and flywheel off(20 minutes)


had the flywheel turn and put it back on(40 miles and 20 minutes puttin on.)


new clutch set, putting it on ( 1 hour)

horrible news, i got the synchro today as well as a diagram from toyota. let me say wow i was in shock. its nothing like what i pictured. i began taking the tranny apart, after having 50 pieces layin around and not even halfway in the the synchro i called it quits. after this mess i realized why they charge 400 bucks in labor. this aftertoon noon i went to the junkward and got me a tranny with 56k for 450. so ill be puttin it on this weekend. ill scan the diagram so u guys can see what i was dealing with.
