im going to attempt to swap my converter anyone have any helpful advice and what will be some of the hard parts about it ive never done this before

get a tranny jack, and strap it to it.

dont drop the transfer case off it, leave it on, as long as you ahve a tranny jack. all you have to do is slide it back.

other than drop the drive shaft, remove lines, and unhook your plugs and/or linkages, it really is straightforward.

a couple 1/2" extensions, and a swivel will let you use a impact on the bell housing bolts.

and when the trans is out, check your up pipes for visible leaks or cracks.

Trans out make up-pipes easy cab-on or still a bitch?

Get a mid length 14mm for the tc bolts.

easy. get a nice long extension. Mid socket works good for the tc.

36" (or something close in length) 3/8" drive extension and swivle socket for the tranny to block bolts make life mucho easy
