Re: 4-Speed Trans Removal Question

["MO ( Steve Mick)" <micher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That is the way I did mine, with  a piece of 2x6 under the rear of the pan 
and a bottle jack- loosen the front motor mount flare nuts. That way you can 
control the angle of the engine. I used a floor jack under the tranny , but 
a tranny jack would be much better..........................MO ......sw

Dennis, might not be the aproved method, but on my 64 hemi we put a block of 
plywood under the pan with a jack and controled the rear of the project with 
that. I do have an aftermarket Milodon pan on the motor.  Oh yes we did pull 
mine complete motor and tranny, I'd never do that again!

I need to pull the 4-speed transmission out of my 63 Sport Fury. I have
a 383 and Borge Warner T-10 in the car. If I had help and more time I
would prefer to remove the transmission and engine together but at this
time it is not an option.  My rear main seal is leaking but that can
wait for now.

I checked the manual and it referred to a fixture to support the rear of
the engine?

I was considering a length of 4"X4" wood with blocks on each end that
would go up to the block castings on each side of the pan and jacking up
the engine.

Is there a better way?

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
