Do you guys think a tranny replacment is something that could be done in a garage/driveway without a lift or anything like that? Have some mechanical knowledge and my brother who is a mechanic would be helping out.

I found a 1990 Bronco 2 for 600 bucks but it needs a trans.

**EDIT** They dropped it down to 400 bucks, trying to get a little more info on it right now.

 

a tranny can be pulled in a driveway, I've helped with a few, you're gonna need a few jacks/jack stands though.. and it may be tricky to fit the trans between the bottom of the truck and the driveway so you may need a way to lift a side of the truck to slide it out/new one in.. hence the multiple jacks.

 

well weve got plenty of small hillsides to pull onto and also a kind of a ditch that i use to pull over top of for oil changes and stuff. That and Ive got a set of ramps too if they would be high enough.

 

i've yanked mine out in the driveway before its pretty simple

 

Its got the 2.9 in it, anybody know what transmissions will bolt up? what years and engines are compatable?
