Since my Servi Car engine turned out to be toast, and had to go out for a rebuild, I decided to dive into the transmission to see why it leaks so badly. Sure enough, just sitting on a bench, the sprocket side cover visibly leaks, as does the top cover with the trans angled even a small bit. So ... at a minimum, I need to replace those gaskets and related seals, as well as the leather gasket for the shift lever. Once it's open, I might as well check everything, following the very detailed post on here by "Pa".
Question is, if I find I need to replace any bushings, can I press those out and new ones in with a benchtop Arbor Press, or would I need a much bigger hydraulic press? Not much room left in my garage, and this is really the only project I can think of that I would need a press for, so I'm reluctant to pop for a 20 ton floor model for just this one job.
Thanks for any input.
