[QUOTE="psduser1, post: 1527610, member: 735"] Out is easy, lol. I use a floor jack to lower the trans down, then wiggle it off the jack onto the floor. On my truck (roughly two inch lift), the frame rails and down pipe will keep the trans on the jack until it's close enough to control the slide to the ground. Then muscle the trans out from under the truck. I would also recommend taking the t-case out separately. Pull all the flange bolts, and let the case rotate down while it is still hanging on the input shaft. Then slide the t-case off the input shaft (trans output shaft), and lower it to the floor. Its heavy, but manageable, with the center of gravity lower. When you go to reinstall the trans/t-case, just reverse the procedure. Pick the fixture you like, I've always used either a standard transmission jack, or a floor jack with a block of wood. Whatever works. I'm no expert, about 4 hrs to pull, and, for me, double that to reinstall. That's on the floor in the shop. If you buy a decent fixture, and have a lift, should be able to shorten those times. Nothing terribly complicated, just awkward and heavy! [/QUOTE]
