Hi all - looking to replace an automatic tranny in a friend's 98 Outback. Anyone know of a good how-to online for this job? I have been looking around for a while, can't find one. Thanks!

its relatively easy...... get a haynes manual from autozone..... it tells you step by step how to do it

 

good luck!

Good luck.

Just did this swap for the first time a couple months ago. It's heavy, and it takes a while, but it's not hard to do. Far easier if you use a tranny jack. Some will recommend pulling the engine first.

 

Seating the torque converter is the only tricky part. There's a write up somewhere that if you follow the instructions, takes maybe a minute to do it right.
