Because of the work, I recommend thaking it to a sop. For me to explaine it, I would write 10 pages and stll I may miss something. I recommend getting a good repair manual.

I have the factory service manual, and am in the process of tearing the trans out, I have to drop the sub frame and support the engine to stabilize it front to back. The factory manual is not that helpful....thanks though.
