If your going to pull the pump ... You will be pulling the "input shaft " and the "pump"... You must stand the trans in its end with the pump facing up ... If you do not shims and plates "could" drop out of place that are deep down in the trans ... Try that it will help .. If it on its side as in the truck ...You pull the shaft shims may drop think about it ..???
