Replacing engine. So, does the transfer case have to be totally removed out of the way are the front axles need to be disconnected to access the remaining components that need disconnecting?

So, it says you will need to reposition the transfer case is all and the CV axles stay in the car. I would start by disconnecting the battery and draining the coolant and engine oil and removing the oil filter. Also, you will be leaving the A/C compressor and power steering pump in the car, you will need an engine hoist to pull the engine out.

NOTE: On 4WD vehicles, it may be necessary to reposition the transfer case vent hose to access the bolts.

Here is how to remove the engine for clarity. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
