pretty much the hardest part is lining up and mating the transmission and engine together. also be careful installing the bolts on the transmission and bolts to the mounts because the threads are aluminum and if you use an impact gun, they may strip. so just tighten the bolts by using a 1/2 inch socket wrench.
@@ryanpittsLPTSunshineCoast also make sure no part of the wiring harness gets in the way. just take your time aligning evenly and then when its together, thread some bolts to hold it together.
Just wanted to throw my thanks out there. First time ever doing a trans removal and reinstall. My throwout bearing went out in my 1999 Civic Ex Coupe 5 spd. With your video it went great! Ended up doing Rear main seal, flywheel, stage 1 exedy clutch and pressure plate, all new motor mounts, and new japanese sankei 555 ball joints. Car has never ran better, did not even have to adjust the clutch. Super stoked, thanks SO much for taking the time to make this with all of the details!
thank you for the vid nick it was very informative, there are pros and cons to not pulling the whole package. to the newcomers i suggest pulling the whole package because you learn, and flush fluids in the process. i watched you video for wrench sizes under my car and i didnt come out untiil it was done. thanks for the vid.
...fun fact, you dont have to drain a manual trans when removing it 😅 unless you're doing a full service. But if you're just doing a clutch/flywheel that's a major waste of time.

Does any one know if the inspection plate is the same from auto to manual as well as the engine brace next to it. Putting a 2000 ex s40 trans in a 98 ex
@nigellane58 the auto inspection plate doesn't fit at all. The auto brace bolts to the engine still and then 1 of the 2 bolt holes lines up with the trans

Hey legend how did you go aligning it and mating it back together? Any tips? My brother is stuck and it won’t join
@@ryanpittsLPTSunshineCoast if doing this on the floor with jack stands, you might need two people to hold the trans and lining up with the dowels.

Thank you this has helped me remove and change a transmission on a EM1.. Thought it would be harder than Kseries but it was way easier.
About to do this on my 2000 EK. Thanks for the tips and tricks.
😅subscribed, was about to change my transmission but wasn't sure where to begin...thanks mate
Thanks for the sub!
thank you dude your a life saver
Cheers bro, very helpful. First time doing this on my 97 ek1.
Best video ever!
Saved me so much time. Thank you.
I never comment or like did both could never find a good video when I needed it
Thanks man I really appreciate it!
Thank u for this video, I am gonna try to remove my tranny soon.
What about the flywheel bolts where you have to turn the crank? I just skipped around and I didn’t see that in the video?
That's only with an automatic transmission. You can see that in my other video here:

Helpful video very good
Thanks, I'm glad you found it useful!
Nice informative video. I wish you could have showed little more about taking transmission out. Some mechanical way to pull it out. Thanks.
Crazy!!! Nice broskie!! 😭 👌 📚 📝
Video was perfect 👌
awesome vid.. i always put tire and rims under car.
Both bolts for my shift linkage are almost completely rounded is there any other way I can get the shift linkage out ?
You could undo the two bushing bolts at the end near the shifter and take the trans out with the shift linkages and shifter still attached.
Thank great video

@@MrChickenspit Watch the video in reverse to put it back on.

Man i took 2 rubber looking washers but i dont remember where they go anyone help??
YESSSS!
I'm not happy with the amount of effort required, especially since I don't have the a lift tools, just a floor jack and 1 jack stand.
Yeah well it’s not a job for non wrenchers
Do you have to take out driver's cv to pull transmission?
You have to at least pull it out of the transmission. You'll have to undo the lower ball joint but you can leave the axle installed in the hub.
