    After buying a super cheap Coyote Mustang GT at my local auction, I found out it had a faulty MT-82 Gearbox. A replacement transmission might not be cheap but it is likely the best solution to this issue, installing it though is where you need the right guy for the job...

    This has to be my favorite project that you have ever done in all the years that you have been putting out videos. After the first video I posted a lengthy response about my love for the mustangs. Of course when I say mustang if it's not a V8 you might as well be driving a Ford focus.
    Back when I was racing my fox body I had gotten so good of changing clutches that in less than 1 hour from the time I crawl underneath and come back out I would have it done in an hour or less. I always put the front wheels on a set of ramps I used my shop Jack on the pumpkin of the rear and put some jack stands underneath for safety. And then I went to town. I knew what needed to come off what size socket or wrench I need it and just went to town. Now this was over 30 years ago and what I was able to do I would lower the transmission onto my stomach and chest roll it to the side get out from underneath and pull it the rest of the way out if I was doing a transmission replacement. I would put it back in reverse put the fixed transmission or the original one right back up on my stomach and chest and put it right back in there and fold it right up.
    I was doing this so often on friends cars also that out of one of the blown up transmissions I took the front and put shaft and used that to light up the clutches. Never once that I have to stop and unbolt the bell housing to fix the clutch disc. It was perfect every time.
    I'd love to see that you replace wearable items. That's the one thing my friends would get mad at me for I would tell them to get these extra parts to have it done while it was torn apart. I explained to them by getting me to do the work you are saving a ton of money and for what it would cost to have it done perfectly you're getting other things replace. Some would do it some wouldn't and the ones who did not when the rear seal for pilot bearing would go bad I would not work on their car. I never charged a friend a single dime for working on their cars. It just seen to be the right thing to do.
    I cannot wait to see the next episode. I am really excited to see the finished product. I've been getting the itch to start racing again and if I decide to do it there is no other car that I would do it with than a mustang. I am Ford blue and oval. Even to this day all I own is Fords. Hell my pickup truck is a 1990 F150 4x4 with the 5.0 motor.

    Hi Sam,
    I've only had to change one failed spigot bearing in the last 32 years and that was due to an oversight by the owner who fitted a junkyard motor that was sitting out in the weather. I appreciate that other viewers like to see you replacing parts that they themselves might need to change and that it makes good content for the uninformed.
    The golden rule in this trade is the less things disturbed, the less things can go wrong, so if it wasn't leaking when you looked at it leave it alone as it is more likely to leak after its been messed around with, especially when using rtv silicon sealer and a claw hammer.
