Hey guys I need some help here. I am trying to remove the transmission from the motor so I can put the motor on my engine stand to get the cherry picker out of the garage. I have all the main bell housing bolts out and the 2 - 14mm bolts on the bottom. My question is, am I missing anything else or is that really it to separate the two? I have the bell housing about 1 inch off the block but it won't get any further and separate. Let me know if there is any trick to separate them or if you can point me to a DIY. I haven't found anything while searching.

I just need to get this done so I can park some cars in the garage finally....

Any help appreciated.

 

Anyone have a diagram of the flexplate bolts? That seems to be where I am hung up...

 

Hope it helps:






Do you have access to the service manual? I took these from page 14-215.

 

Brah.. Y U NO PULL IT OUT FIRST?????

It's a bitch and you need room..

If you already got it taken care of, disregard..

 

Thanks guys. Got her taken care of last night. Harder to do with it sitting on blocks of wood. I guess I wasn't level enough to slide the converter off the shaft.

 

Prime for the picking..

What are your plans Breezy?

 

Well I have my TL-S and really no need for this motor. I plan on parting it out or try to sell as a whole. No luck as a whole so far, I think the 196k Miles turns people away.
