Instead of pulling the tranny up through the access hole in the floor pan, I loosened the trunion bolts, slid the yoke on the torque tube back, raised the tube with a jack, loosened the cross member supporting the tranny and slide it back toward the rear of the truck. Once all that was done, the tranny was clear to unbolt and lower to the floor. Didn't use a tranny jack (I think the unit weighs about 50 lbs) but it would have probably been easier. I also found this to be a much easier way to install. > > Ken > > brynzadrine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a bad seal on my transmission.
