I am having trouble getting to the last bolt on the Transfer case connecting to the engine. It is very difficult to reach due to the firewall being in the way. looking at it it through the bottom it would be at about the 9-10 o'clock area or the middle bolt on the drivers side.

Also, I am having trouble with the oil pan clearance when trying to move the engine forward in hope that it would allow easier access to the bolt.
I can't drop the back of the transmission because it is a 4wd and the clearance of the back is only about 2-3 inches.

Any Ideas? I really don't know what to do here.

 

Try to remove the bolts to the trans. crossmember and jack up the back of the trans. This may give you enough clearance to reach the bolt from the top. Hope this helps, good luck.

 

Thanks but that didn't work. We kept trying to do that but we still could get it forward or high enough to get it out. Instead, a neighbor who was a diesel mechanic got under there with a wiggler and was some how able to find the room. Thank you for the help though
