They can be anywhere from 1/2" to 11/16" depending on a number of things. Actually, forgot you were talking about the newer trans, they may actually be metric. It's best like Doc said to bring a whole set of wrenches. You most likely may be able to get them out with a socket. Bring a large screwdriver or pry bar as well to use to hold the flywheel from turning as you crack them loose and also to turn the flywheel to get to each bolt. | | | Re: Transmission refuses to come off???? | Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 323 enthusiast | OP enthusiast Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 323 | Hi Doc 2% & Superbeast Excellent advice, trying to get this A518 transmission out of a ramcharger a guys parting as then going to swap my 727 tranny with it as want the overdrive to hopefully increase my gas mileage.

Thanks again to everyone who posted, gearbox now sitting back home in the garage - AT LAST!. Bit of servicing to do filter etc , whilst thre got prop, all the switches connected to the transmission, dipstick, crossmember, 1 x oil cooler pipe (other broken) , shift linkage and switch from dash that engages overdrive. And so the project to put this in my Dodge B200 Van commences. Will keep a record of this and hopefully post a how to when I'm done.

Had the one in my '76 ford's C6 leak on me pretty bad, but yours should be a bit newer than that

Another thing I have to look at is whilst I was underneath the guy who was selling the box said he'd remove the dipstick tube but he ended up snapping it! Found out he was using a crowbar as he thought it was pushed in so will have to see what I can sort out. | | |
