Don't know if this counts as a stupid question, but I'll post anyways. My wife's 99 with 216k miles blew a trans recently. The original lasted 171k, the rebuilt lasted 61k.
I wasn't willing to spend another $2k on a car with this many miles, so I got the car back from the garage (w/transmission removed and in the trunk), and I plan to buy a junkyard tranny and see if I can't get another year from the car. I'm in OH, so maybe Cherry Auto?
Anyways, I need to get the front of the car in the air, and I need to know the best places for jacking. I do have a jack with a long arm, so I can get the car in the air a good distance.
So, best places for jacking, and any tips for getting the transmission in? I'm not going for hp or anything here; just putting a stock transmission in?
thanks in advance for answers
