I was managing a ranch in CA. The 82 year old neighbor comes over in his coveralls all dirty asking if I had a transmission jack. When I inquired what he was up to, he told me he got the turbo flight trans out of his motor home but was having trouble getting it back in without a jack. I thought he was nuts. He then tells me a story about coming down off a mountain driving a crane and exploding a clutch. Not losing one, not fading but exploding through the housing. He stopped it by running it into the cut bank of the mountain. I expressed dismay. He said calmly, "Yeah. It was quite a pucker moment." He said pulling the tranny from the motor home was nothing compared to doing the crane clutch with minimal tools.
