Ah, a future series Director.

All I did was pick up a transmission jack, those stupid t56s are heavy.

Wow! Good job. I'm gonna quit now before I get beat by a girl! (j/k'ing).

Well......this is bad news for me, if I can ever find the time to fix the car and do the upgrades for the duece that is. Awesome job Mindy. There's gonna be a lot of mid pack slackers in trouble here pretty quick.

Pulled the rear end out from under the car; half expecting to find REALLY ugly stuff.

Bad news is there is NO vent at all in the housing. Certainly helps explain the smoking.

Good news is the rear end was relatively full of fluid, and both the ring and pinion gears look good, and I don't feel any slop and no noise to speak of.

The real question is whether I risk messing with the pinion seal since the vent was missing entirely. I'm leaning toward cleaning it up, putting in a brass nipple for a vent hose per several recommendations and moving forward.

So now the winter review continues with one T56 locked in gear and one that won't go into gear.
