Hi folks,

I have my transmission gaskets (rubber ones) that are fouked.

I have two full sets of gaskets and a minispares X pin diff ready to jump in the car.

How difficult is it to fit the X pin with the engine still in the car versus only doing the gaskets (paper and rubber) ?
(rate in swearing / injury per hour)

(my car will remain N/A 998 for the next 2 years at least until I buy a house)

did mine in the car ,much easier *smiley* both engine mounts undone ,shove engine forward and tilt top towards bulkhead ,and it all slides off ,undo speedo casing and get and the pinion nut........using a ramp helps.

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM
