* remove the clutch linkage ..... oops lost that cotter pin in the gravel

* unbolt the tail shaft from the cross member

* start taking out the bolts around the bell housing ....... all of them EXCEPT the top one

* drag a 2 1/2 gal bucket and place it under the transmission ... maybe with a 2x4

* NOW the last bolt on the top ....... a bitch isn't it

* pull the transmission off the spline and hope it lands on the bucket

* dig a trench in the gravel so you can clear the bell housing from the frame

* ahhhh ...... yes, pop the tops on a few brews and call it a day

NOW, @Ultramaroon ........ when are you going to start that project ......
