sure heres a quicky bro-
(pre work - drain fluid,remove front wheels, remove starter)
TRANS REMOVAL
1- remove batt
2- remove intake assem
3- remove battery plate
(smoke a cig , drink a bit)
4- remove cross member (undercar) and front motor mount
5- put jack stand under engine
6- remove trans inspection plate
7- remove tourqe converter bolts (x4)
(trun off the phone cause by now its pissing u off)(smoke a cig again)
8- remove lower control arms (both sides)
9- remove tie rod ends from brake assem (both sides)
10- pull axles out of the trans (may need a flat head/pry bar)
((clean hands and apply liquid skin to the skin that your missing on your knuckles)(smoke again)
11- remove engine-trans bolts (x4)
12- remove harness connections/ trans cooler lines
13- remove rear trans mount
14- remove drivers side motor mount
(pop back ,take pain killer drink some more and again another smoke)
15- pull trans away from engine
16- pick up trans off the ground lol
(jump up and down screammin n cussin cause u cant feel your foot)
DIFF COVER/ DIFFERENTIAL
(by this point u should be drunk as hell and can no longer feel your back ache)
1- remove differential cover (black/round/rear of trans)
2- drain fluid , clean with "paint" thinner (no alcohol based cleaners)
3- remove axle retainers (both sides/outside)
4- pull differential out of the trans via the diff cover
5- pin is located in the front of the diff. may or matnot have to pull the diff out
6- the pin is approx 2"long with small splines on one side
that basically it.... leave yourself about 2 days open for the work... and try not to let the trans just fall out of the car.... if u can use a jack to try and break the fall abit... also if u still have the dust covers under the car (black plastic) remove em..
