Bus Transaxle project

I am in the process of replacing the transaxle on my bus. For those of you who do not know, a transaxle is a combination of an axle and a transmission. to do this, you must remove the engine and the trans axle leaving basically nothing in the back of the bus. I went and got a rebuilt trans on Friday and put it in with my friend Adam and Matt's help Sunday night. I spent most of Monday hooking stuff up and taking the motor apart to clean it. I will try and post more pics as they come available, and as I clean my hands enough to use the camera.
