Well I am trying to remove my Tcase and so far this is what I've done. Disconnected the F&R Dshafts,Drained Tcase & Trans Wasn't sure if I needed to drain the trans but did anyway, unbolted what I thought needed unbolted I think it was 4 bolts a couple inches long and 3 really long bolts probably 5" long. I gave it a tug and a couple taps with a rubber mallet but could not get it out. The seal did break because there was fluid coming from around the seal and it opened about a 8th of a inch. What am I doing wrong I really don't have a clue what I'm doing .

Did you take the shifter out ???? A must do on a 'carb' case !!!

I would assume that you unbolted the case from the cross member !????

I couldn't find anywhere that it was attached to the cross member but will give it another look.

take off you shifter boot inside the cab and you'll see 4 bolts holding a plate that the shifter goes into.....pull this and that'll remove your shifter......the case should be connected to the crossmember by 4 bolts tha tie it to a rubber bushing....maybe not on your year rig tho......see if that helps and post back.......

Thanks for the diagrams and the help. I'm already cleaned up and heading to bed but will give it another try first thing tomorrow. I ended up converting those diagrams to JPGs. That program it came with was killing me but wouldn't you know as soon as I started printing them out my printer ran out of ink. I guess it's off to BestBuy tomorrow for some ink so that I can get that thing printed up. Anyway thanks again for the help. Got to go the old lady is hollering for me to come to bed.

Well It's out. Dumb ass me I had unbolted the wrong bolts. I was trying to remove the part right after the crossmember. Now that it's setting in my garage floor it's time to print out those diagrams and see what I can do.
