You sir, have too much time on your hands.

Love your engine holder. I'll have to dig up a pic of my 4x4 treated lumber engine hoist.

Your frame must be different than the Bonnevilles because I can squeeze my trans between the engine and frame.

I find that many smaller 3" -4" extensions instead of one big one allows the extension to "flex" allowing it to sneak into awkward tight spaces like the backward trans bolt.

And I didn't know the standard engine stand could hold a 4T60 like that. Thanks for the tip.

I think they changed the design on the H body cradle in 99. I only wish I had too much time on my hands. These days sleep seems to be a rare thing dealing with this POS taking care of kids and working all night long at my regular job.

Look! I found a piece of rubber seal poking out of the side of the clutch pack.

And here is the rest of the seal that has been giving me a headache for the past 2 months and 2 trips to a "professional" tranny shop!

Got the tranny put back together today. Had to make a tool to get the clutch pack spring retainers put back in. Hopefully I can get it back into the car tomorrow and be done with this thing.
