well, the tranny is finally out. It took all day to get it done, between that and cooking anyway. It was terrible ...... the starter bolts and the top tranny mount bolts were a huge pita. I have no clue how the heck I'll even get them back in. I honestly cant say I'm sorry I'm doing this on my own because I'm learning another thing. I love to learn how to do this stuff so I keep doing it on my own instead of taking to a garage and having someone else mess up stuff that I can mess up on my own. Ill keep ya's posted on how the clutch replacment goes and all of the reinstall goes.

Props to KP, I called to ask him how he got the starter bolts out when he replaced his and about a half hour later he showed up at my door to help. Without me even asking him to, and on a holiday no less. He saved me alot of pain by helping get the bolts and the tranny and transfer case out. Thank bud!
