support the trans, remove the crossmember/torque arm
let trans hang off engine to access top trans bolt/harness bracket..ect...ect..
watch that you dont break the oil pressure sender :bat: good time to change oil pressure sender,rear main and back spark plugs with trans out.:cool2:
it might be necessary to jack up on the front of the motor a little also
make sure you undo the torque converter from the flywheel,i know its common sense but i have seen people pissed because they couldnt get the tranny out and they hadnt even unbolted the t.c. yet
LOL Actually that help because this is my first automatic I will be taking out. Everything else has been manuals.
there is a small round (plug) about 11/2-2 inches across on the bottom of the bellhousing just to the driverside. pop that plug out and you can get a large flathead screwdriver in there to turn the motor over with the teeth on the flywheel. take the starter out and turn the motor till you can see the torque converter bolt in the hole where the starter was....there are 3 converter bolts..Quote:
