Funny you should mention that, I have been looking at digital cameras but hadn't found one that got good ratings compared to cheaper 35mm slr. I did take some pictures this morning with parts everywhere under my shed. I split last night with the help of the 16 yr old, went pretty well considering what we had to work with. I only have one floor jack, so I have to plan the process carefully or check mate, I can't get the jack out to lift the other end. Turns out I didn't roll the rear end far enough back to completely clear the tranny when we dropped it, so that was a little pucker time, especially having never done it before. The book has been right on (FO4) in its instructions. Oh, yeah there was one point where (no overhead hoist) I needed the whole family out there helping. The wife placed the block of wood under the battery box behind the engine while I and the biggest boy lifted the steering wheel. The 13 yr old shined the flash light for the spots where the overhead light was not right. I pulled everything out this morning, and found a ruined 1st gear (knew that, had one), counter shaft (half expected that, didn't have one, ordered one) and a bunch of bearings in really bad shape. Pulled all bearings and cups, had to use the cutting torch on bearing on main drive shaft from engine. Didn't hurt the shaft, (that was $70 from the junk yard I saved). My bearings, counter shaft, and gaskets will be ready monday. So, I have the weekend off to play!
