Well, I've got my transmission attached again, so I'll proceed to putting the cradle back. 18mm screw heads for the transmission and cradle bolts? In all my years of working on cars I've never used an 18; most tool kits jump from 17 to 19.

Also, the a** bolt. I left it out. There was no way I was going to remove the exhaust just for a chance at getting at that bolt.

I have a question tho'. As I just got a box of parts back from the same shop I retrieved my car from, there's one or two things I don't recognize. There are a couple of plastic bushings with slightly flanged ends. These might go to the swaybar link connection (which the shop removed), but I'm not sure.

Also, do I need to loctite the flywheel to torque converter screws?

thanks,

Sean
