@Taamir1990 I usually take them out from the bottom which means you need
something to support the engine. An engine hoist will work but I use a bar
that sits on the channel of the fenders and chains to the engine and holds
it up. If you had a sturdy enough board you could do the same thing.

mine i ask this honest question why did you bother taking on this job for a
Buick

Stoneyburke says:

PB blaster works great for all rusted parts……..wd40 is worthless,and
liquid wrench seems diluted anymore.

seem like some serious over kill to change a couple bushings.

bah53 says:

its somewhat difficult, ive done ones that were worse, but all FWD trannys
suck to change

bah53 says:

im not going to strip off the rust, takes too long, im just gonna clean out
the dirt and slobber oil all over it. If i was gonna take the rust off id
take a wire wheel on a drill or angle grinder to get the rust off.

eeevvviiil says:

is it hard to change the trannys in these cars?

What’s the best way to get the rear subframe to frame insulaters out, and
still be able to use them???

Taamir1990 says:

transmission i dont have money for a shop mechanic to take it out i have a
slight mechanic ability so how do i get this dam thing out and do i need a
engine hoist or can i use a block of wood ?

bah53 says:
