Good job..
You could have made those 4 bolts on the TC easier to remove with a ratcheting box end wrench...
Takes guts to do it yourself.

Why would I ever want to make something easier? Kidding aside, We could only turn a few degrees but if the ratchet end will click, that would have been the perfect tool. Sadly, a tool lacking from my kit. Remember, the engine was seized and we didn't have the luxury of being able to turn the crankshaft. Must upgrade!
I do a lot of wrenching on my old VW's, Samurai and my f250.
I have several sets of the ratchet combo wrenches and socket sets.
They have evolved to 72 teeth steps now. They are absolutely wonderful. A must have for guys that do their own junk!
Even HFrieght has a great set! I would not get anything but the 72 point wrenches now.
Actually many of the mfg of Socket/ratchet sets now have 72 point!

I have been a Craftsman/Snapon etc man for over 50 years but when you only need to use a special wrench etc one or two times HF sure does the job.
