Most of Banana is gone, but there's still some junk left. Also, I'm getting rid of some redundant or unneeded tools.

Parts:

Glass t-tops
Cut Z28 springs
Tilt column
Clutch and brake pedals
Harness with Bussman fusebox
Big-ish box full of copper wire for automotive rewiring. All sizes and colors from battery wire down to sensor leads

Tools:

NAPA 2-ton jack. Nearly new,very nice shape
Harbor Freight screw-type transmission dolly jack
Two tall jackstands. Some parts house brand from China, I forget

Make any offer on any or all. Cool

What are the springs cut to?

Don't remember. They came off Paul's old car, which sat about right for a street car. Pics are in his profile. Banana sat real high on them due to having no weight.

If I had to guess based on past experience I would say there's probably about 3/4 coil off of them.

3/4 cut off iroc springs not z28. Heavy car sat about 1 1/2-2" down.

What's the difference between uric and/or z28 springs exactly?

I'm looking to lower mine a bit but nothing drastic, if they'll work for what I'm lookin for I'll take them off your hands, tack it on to my monster list of work I'm oiling up for spring time

Irocs are stiffer

Id take the tranny jack if I was closer to you.. that would have come in handy last weekend...

No way man. T5 by hand. A jack makes it a nightmare.

Using the jack with any manual is tricky because the input shaft will never line up. At best you can put it under the tailshaft without using the strap so you're not supporting the entire case while you wrestle the input through the clutch disk. Ask me about doing that on a SM465/NP205 combo in my old K5 once! Laughing

Paul was pointing out that my listing is incorrect. The springs I have are IROCs, not Z28s. Wink

They will be a significant improvement over RS springs in stiffness and height.

Then you need more pushups!!!

Last time I did it, had the trans on a plain old floor jack, got the shaft half way in, kept it supported, took the jack out then wiggled it around until it bottomed out. lol (insert skyler's mama joke here)... Laughing

A really good tranny jack with all the adjustments can make things alot easier. We have an old timer at work that is sweet. It's funny cause it actually has holes marked in it for Studebaker!

I haven't had a stick since I was a kid (except for the jeep now), but I did the pushup method back then. And that was with a cast iron big block 3spd trans. Not your typical 3spd saginaw either, much heavier. Not sure how that 120# geek back then was able to do the things he did! Very Happy
