I don't know about 82 diesel but the 84 1.9, you leave the engine alone
just blocking it up.
The transmission will lower out away from the engine.

Here's what happened. Supposedly a newly rebuilt tranny (just bought
the
vanagon) No shifting problems for three months, now every time I go
thru
the gears it locks in 4th. If I stop, shut off the engine and rock it
slightly
backward in 4th, it will slip out of gear,
Is this a bad syncro? Maybe a burr on a brass tooth?
Also, does the front of the tranny come off or do you have to pull the
engine?
