Well I got home from work rather late today but I still managed to get the passenger side axleshaft and assembly deal together after I got home. Worked for about a half hour or so on it until it got dark on me. Now all I need is the drivers side.....yay!

Here's my question:
I had the passenger side fully installed but the drivers side was barely engaged. The circlip was not installed plus there is no fluid in the tranny. I started the car to see if the tranny would move the tires when placed in Drive but they did not. I can't bear the suspense if this tranny will work or not.

Do the axleshafts both need to be fully installed and fluid need to be in an auto trans for it to work? Thanks.

Don't even think about starting it without the tranny being full of fluid.

Yeah, I know. You're right.

I ran it for about 30 seconds no lie. I just could'nt contain myself. I just got home from work right now and I'm too beat to even want to work on it right now. Maybe tomorrow but definitely over the weekend it'll be done and I'll top off the fluids and go.

I sure hope she moves man! Thanks.
