Precision Fit
So I have the entire body off my 63 willys truck with 230 tornado and t90 and It was last registered in 1992 and I'd say that's about how long it's sat before I got it. Transmission leaks several places and I haven't driven it more than to the end of the street so far couple hundred feet and it (didn't run when I bought it)
Since the body is completely off some repairs are easier done now so I'd like opinions on what I should take care of now. I ordered a Dana 18 gasket kit USA made with double lip seals and I'd also like to replace input shaft seal since every jeep that hasn't been reseal ed recently seems to leak like crazy especially at front input seal. I hear horror story's of how difficult it is to remove bellhousing from motor. So is it OK or advisable to remove tranny leaving the bellhosuing on the motor To replace input shaft seal?
Honestly I'd like to probably do a new clutch and resurface flywheel since I have no idea the condition or age of them after sitting so long(is a clutch even available for this truck?) but removing the bellhop sing sounds like a bear.
Opinions wanted please...
