pulling an engine, need help

[bestof1999]

Im leaving the tranny in. Got a 2ton lift but just didnt want the tranny at the time. Really Close but the top tranny bolts are giving my heck

3' of extentions..... unbolt the trans cross member with a jack under it. Lower it down and it will lower those bolts down so you can get them out by using the extensions from the bottom...

Unbolt and remove those two top ones first then put the trans cross member back and use the jack to hold the front of the trans up when you get the other bolts out and pull the engine..

1/2 and 9/16 deep impact wobbly sockets and 3 foot extenstion is your best friend on bellhousing studs.

Since it's a 99. It will be metric... so 13mm and a 14mm....
