Are you having trouble lifting it up into the engine bay and engaging the splines into the clutch? On my p10 and on stock p12s its a nasty tight fit, and ive almost been tempted to drop the engine to fit the box at times. Removing the whole lower control arm and brackets gives a little more room around the subframe, otherwise its just a lot of wiggling.

On 32 series boxes ive found that the black cable bracket has a hole which my lifter hook is a perfect balance point, and makes the box slide on to the clutch like butter, but the 6 speed doesnt have a obvious point of balance built in. If you can make a bracket to hang the gearbox and lift it in, then its heaps easier to wiggle it around to get it past all the annoying things it hangs up on.

Finally got the trans on, I ended up unbolting the cross member and let the engine droop all the way down from the passenger mount and it went on pretty smooth..



I did have a little help from the hoist lol



Nates dad made some lifting brackets to bolt on.. only needed the 1 tho



This sombitch is beefy



More to come..

well, things were going way too smoothly..

i went to attach the shifter cables last night only to find my trans wont shift into any gear.. the left\right motion of the shifter is also very stiff.. i tried shifting it without the cables installed but it wont budge.. i checked @zeneffect 's transmission an his shifts smooth into every gear.. idk why i didnt check it before installing the trans

looks like i gotta reverse everything i just did and tear the trans apart to figure out the problem.. fucking sucks cuz i really didnt want to dig into a 6spd trans just yet.. guess i got some learning to do..

Man that really sucks what a pita. Hope you can get it squared away without too much hassle.
