T-5 Swap done

[Dan P.]

Well I had a break for a week between my summer sessions and Brantley was kind enough to help me. We got started on a Wed about 1 or so and worked till 12ish and from 8ish to 4 or 5 the next day. We got the tranny out and the pedals out too. The pedals took the longest and were a pain in the ars and back. But we got everything changed out and she worked. I need to fix a few things but it drives fine. I didn’t really get a chance to take any pics I was up to my arms in tranny fluid and grease but Ill take some soon. I’m happy the old A4LD is gone

How heavy is the T5?

 

[Dan P.]

Im not sure on the weight, but you can pick it up your self. Where as the A4LD it took both of us to pick it up.

Dry T5 is about 75 lbs.

Good to see another A4LD out of the way.
