if you get a 1/4 inch ratchet with a small head on it and a 15mm socket its as simple as can be. did a trans on a 2000 today and figured id take a picture

 

I use a meter long extention and a wobbler at the socket and do em from back by the u-joint...

 

lol. nice, thats how i do most the other ones. i tried at first using one of those wobble sockets to get it off and couldnt get it

 

To go back in with the transmission the guy decided to drop the cab bolts and raised the rear of the cab about 6" to give more installing room. It worked out well.
