Disconnect the battery. Remove the dipstick (not the tube) Pull both driveshafts (make sure wheels are chocked well). Drain the transfer case (to prevent a big mess). Unhook all the wiring and vent lines. Remove transfer case to trans adapter nuts. Remove transfer case with assistance. Support the trans and remove the crossmember and exhaust system. Disconnect the cooler lines and the filler tube. Pull the starter off to gain access to and remove the flexplate to converter bolts. Unbolt the trans from the engine. Pull it back then down. I'm sure I left something out but that's the gist of it.
Oh yeah....since it's a 6.0 from the factory, you may not need to drop both exhaust pipes. Good luck fighting the goofy trans to exhaust bracket that only comes on 6.0's.
Oh...the bolts from the transfer case you need to remove are on the back side of the adpater--not the ones in front.
They're nuts but Tyler is correct. Leave the transfer case adapter bolted to the trans.
:bow:
Yeah, if I remember correctly, the bolts are in back and the nuts are on the front... :duh:
