Banging, test fitting, in/out, only to find it doesn't have clearance... If someone has a 2J/CD009 without the tunnel cut post pictures, or a story of the clunking noise the tranny makes when they shift.


You're damn near there!
I sincerely appreciate this comment. I was being told by a bunch of people otherwise and I said the same damn thing. I went in and out so many times only to find out it just isn't fitting without recess cuts. I can look back on it now and laugh, but it's enough to drive somebody to lose motivation... I'd rather tell people how tough this all was than act like it was a cake walk.
