i just have a quick clarification. when removing the transmission do i have to remove the tr from the clutch housing or the clutch housing from the engine. im pretty sure i have to remove the bolts from the clutch housing to the engine. just so you know i have a 5 spd transmission.

Unbolt the bellhousing from the block, there's 2 bolts on each side and 2 at the top.

thats what i thought those two at the top are a bi*** to get to. thx for clearing that up.

zebo87

ok so i got the bolts out. now im having probs backing the transmission out. im not sure if the jack is messing up or if im not pulling hard enough or what. could i have the engine up a little too high. any info would be helpful thx guys.

The dowel pins could be frozen...did you try putting a pry bar in between the block and the bellhousing to coerce it a little?

zebo87

not yet. i just wanted to ask a couple of questions before i started cranking on the block and bellhousing. better to ask than to break something.

No need to crank, just a little gentle persuasion with the pry bar can help unstick it, if it's gonna go it will go.

zebo87

yeah im going to do that next.
