I agree, but the gallery for this software is not all that simple to use, prob why it was harldy used. I am looking into whether there are any plugins to make it easier.

Kewl thanks for the response Collie. I hope more people will utilize it because it's a far easier way for all Moonies to reminisce the campouts. I sure would utilize it to show pics of others and alls' kewl buses

hippieman, the gallery has been gone for a while as it was not being utilized. I will look into its status.

Yep 13 turns is ok. Putting back by number of turns is just a general guide to get it close assuming it was aligned correctly before you started.

Gregs 1984 Vanagon has lost motion.
We both seem to think the rear main seal leaking has taken the clutch out, A new clutch is coming in, as well as rear main seal. How hard is it going to be to do this? Can we drop just the trans and leave the engine in place to do this?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Jason

I usually pull the motor out.But If you have access to a lift you can pull just the tranny.

Yeah, Ive done it that way on an 84. Be sure to brace the motor so the weight is not twisting the rubber motor mounts out
