Cheers mate that will no doubt help members whos hand eye foot coordination is unused because of the lazy auto syndrome ;-)
Mate after doing it, I wouldn't do it again, what a pain and I am a mechanic :)
i bet it was mate, glAd ive got a manual to start.
What made ya do it?
I had a reco auto in the GQ already that only lasted 3 years, the cost of another reco was to high and to be honest I much prefer driving manual off road. So we will see how it goes, at least with a manual box I will be able to strip and repair it myself :)
Nice write up Paul,
As a person who just swapped a manual gearbox for another manual gearbox, it's a big job, I could imagine the auto would be worse.
At least like you had access to a gearbox jack, 4 post hoist etc. But still a big heavy bugger of a job.
Enjoy the manual mate you'll never look back

Getting the auto out was the easy bit, because there is no clutch assembly in the way! Me and the wife got the auto out in a morning, I reckon with a hoist and tranny jack an auto swap would be do-able in a day :) still not for the faint hearted though :)
How did you wire the reverse switch to get lights to go??
