Hey Brian, 

I think he was wondering if it is automatic or manual.  On an auto, you can remove the transmission whilst leaving the differential installed.  On a manual, it is one piece... i.e., a transaxle.

Cheers, 

Jeff

I am going to try to swap out by dying transaxle with an unknown one I have in my garage.  If that fails I ll have to go the rebuild route.  In any event, it would be nice if there was a good video or write-up on the process. Does anyone know of one?

It s an 83.5 Westy.

Thanks,
Bryan
