Transmission Rebuild Thread

the two trans tools mazda has are the giant long puller set and the giant socket. i think the socket is 36mm, but its a couple feet long so you can put it over the shaft and loosen the nut.

the socket also doubles as the bearing installer, although a few feet of 3" pipe and a couple old stationary gears work really well here too. the bearings are not a very tight press fit.
