Ring gear install results..


First remove the old ring gear.. dead easy, drill as big a hole as you 
can in the ring gear and hit with a chisel, worked like a charm.

Second, freeze the flywheel and heat the ring gear (My SAAB book says 
not over 450 F or you may loose temper) until it will "slip right on".  
PFFFT.. those folks are liars.  I heated/ froze that damned thing all 
day long with the result that i finally did the right thing as 
recommended by Paul A, and I let the shop do it..  took a BIG torch and 
a several ton PRESS!!  to get that damned thing together.  Heat may 
AS*.

.. oh yeah, does the Bugeye rear wiring harness run inside the cabin 
along the passengers side door??
