Hello everyone..I have been lurking here for the longest time and now it is time to give back!!

I am going to rebuild the transmission in front of everybody..The trans is a 722.315 out of a 83 300D turbo..The car has over 400 thou miles and the trans was working fair but it had it's issues..It Leaked like crazy..just about everywhere..But the main leak was the secondary oil pump..After you parked the car after a run, within 30 minutes there was a puddle about 8-10 wide on the driveway..coming out of the secondary pump..

I have yanked the engine and tranny and have already rebuilt the engine..
Sorry I didn't take pictures of the engine rebuild..but it is done and waiting for the trans to be done..

So with out much further explaining..I will take as many detailed pictures as possible and step by step show every detail of this project..

Everyone ,Please contribute to this as I go along..If I am making a mistake, please tell me!!

So here is the first picture..The trans is on a sawhorse table in my garage..and this is a close up of the secondary pump before I pulled it off..Bolts are loose and ready to remove it...


Edit.. As usual a problem uploading a picture..
