Hi all,
I've got an '84 vanagon with what I'm assuming is a bad pilot bearing. I am planning on doing the job myself but I need directions for how to drop just the back end of the transmission to allow access to the engine. I'm sure I remember seeing this somewhere before but I can't seem to find it now. As I recall there is a procedure that leaves the front end of the transmission attached but swings the back half down and out of the way. Anybody out there done this one? Got info on how I can do it? Like I said, I've looked around a bit both online and in the Bentley book but everything I've seen is a procedure for removing the whole darn thing and I'd sure like to avoid that if possible.
Thanks for the help!
