Since the exterior issues are about finished, the next major project is to pull the Paragon PV33 transmission for some maintenance. Any tips you can give me? The transmission sits inside the rear of the cabin and can be accessed fairly easily. The issue I have is how I am going to get this thing outside the cabin. I am guessing it weights nearly 200 lbs if not more.

Several friends....... in the past I helped pull an engine out of a HM Baracuda aft cabin HB and we did it by stripping it down of all its asscessories and getting a 2" section of steel pipe, slinging it to it and man handling it through the cabin and out the side door. Not fun but it worked, make sure you lay plastic down to prevent any staining of the carpet.
