im going to be replacing my trans here in a few weeks. started losing 4th on the highway, and now 2nd is going as well. ive already got one ordered. im just wondering if there is any special tricks or tips that will aid me in getting it out smoothly. i dont have a garage let alone a paved driveway to work in. is it possible to leave the transfer case in the truck, or does that have to come still attached to the trans? i also plan on doing the fuel spider and intake gaskets while im at it, are the trans top bolts 9/16" like most others? i have a flex head ratcheting wrench that would probably be ideal since the intake will be off.

 

im glad im so dependant on the help of others online
