Get a box of bulbs from the auto parts store and start changing them if you buy a used one you could end up with the same thing

I am not sure what you done here so do you have the U joint out of the yoke on the t case or not

as for the exhaust all you need to do is take the cross over pipe off.
On each side of the bell housing you will see where the cross over pipe is bolted to the exhaust manifold 3 bolts each side,no need to take it all off
When pulling the tranny take 4 bolts out where the tranny bolts to the bell housing slide tranny back and you can get right into the bell bolts remove bell bolts and you can see the bolts that hold the clutch and pressure plate in

   Clean all the bolts you can see and put some of that panther stuff Jim was talking about :readthis:.  Enjoy yourself :biggrin:.

i got the ujoin free of the yoke that connect to the diff, but i cant get the driveshaft off the tcase.

Spray around the u joint caps that you took the straps off with the panther piss let soak for awhile take a pry bar put between the ujoint and the yoke and pry it will start to move you will just have to work at it

:eyebrownod: Took the words right out of my mouth, but you can also jack the back of the truck up a little bit to put some pull pressure on your shaft. Obviously you want to jack it by the frame, and not the differential, cause you want the differential to drop as you go up.

Yes that makes a bit of a difference Gas engine no turbo
The Y pipe still bolts to the exhaust manifolds and it also bolts to the catylic converter  you will
probably break the bolts or just cut the ones off the converter and put new ones in when you put it back together
There should be nuts on top of the bolts on the manifolds so those can be cut and replace with new ones also

Think cutting cat out and replacing it with straight pipe, and putting new  muffler in would make it sound good?

There's a sign in the service station down here that reads;
Dont ask me to remove your catalytic converter and I wont ask you to pay the $2500 fine.

how much fluid should i expect to lose when splitting t case and transmission? and it seems that my tranny and bell housing done split up?  they d but its a ways back, ill show you in this illustration.

that place with the waffle designe on it, and the question mark, is that the bell housing or the tran? that black line where i wrote bolts is the only place where it could be. its only place where the bell housing can seperate, unless its solid?
