Anyone walk me through a C4 tail shaft removal? Anyone...

Need more detail. You talking removal of the long shaft from a slip yoke tranny to install a short shaft for a married 4x4(bronco D-20)? If so, you're looking at the disassembly of the entire tranny as the long slip-yoke output shafts are retained by a C-clip deep inside the cluthc drum assembly. The Fixed yoke C-4 in an early Econoline isn't retained this way. since it has a bearing to keep it from falling out.

The Stock C-4 in an EB may also be held in by a C-clip, not sure though in this case.

Yep, that sounds like the one. It's a car C4.. just got my Advance Adapters tailshaft/housing thingy today.. and looking to pull that thing apart and get it all back together and ready to bolt up :)

Woohoo.. c-clips.. sounds fun.. guess I'll go start yankin it apart!!

Damn, now I look further down the posts.. someone else asked just about the same damn question. What a knob I am :)
