Boy! You guys go through a lot of work to remove a transmission. Disconnect
the battery, on all models but the V6, unbolt starter from on top and slide
back, disconnect safety neutral switch and throttle pressure cable on
automatics, on V6, disconnect the flywheel pick up ( possibly on ZDJL also),
Once the car safely jacked up or on a lift with clear center, remove front
exhaust pipe along with catalytic converter or front muffler depending on
model ( gas or diesel), disconnect exhaust hanger at differential, remove
shields from front of transmission and starter on V6, remove torque
converter bolts on automatics, remove both bolts holding the steering rack
on the crossmember and let it hang down ( do not disconnect any lines or the
ram unless you want to rebuild the rack, if so remove it now) , undo
transmission linkage(s), drain transmission, undo dipstick tube (automatic),
remove the two bolts at differential mounts and let torque tube rest on
crossmember, support transmission untill torque tube barely touches rear
crossmember, undo the four bolts connecting torque tube to transmission (
NOT DIFFERENTIAL), slide the torque tube and diff assembly back an inch or
so, using channel locks ( being carefull not to mar seal surface) grab the
driveshaft and move it back along with diff and tube assembly as far back as
it will go. the driveshaft is spring loaded at the differential end, you may
have to use a pry bar to push it back into the torque tube to clear the
transmission to push the end up towards the floor, lower the transmission
support, disconnect cooler hoses on automatics, using a block of wood
agaisnt the front pulley, jack up the front of the engine untill the engine
hits the steering rack, or radiator hoses become strained. Undo clutch slave
cylinder on standards, remove mounting bolts ( trans to engine), on
automatics, with some support ( trans jack, well centered floor jack) slide
the trans mission back insuring the torque converter follows the lower and
out once the transmission is clear of the engine, on standards, back off
transmission untill clear of dowel pins, then rotate 90 deg counterclockwise
( towards driver's side) and slide out.
On SW the torque tube procedire is different. With the car supported so as
the differential is hanging, disconnect sway bar if so equipped, undo the
clips holding the parking brake cables. there are to clips holding the brake
hose on the diff and floor brackets, undo them without disconnecting the
brake lines and slide out of the brackets, undo the spring for the brake
compensator, just pull it off without touching the adjustment, I usually use
a comealong to pull the diff back untill the wheels touch the rear pads in
the fender well, again make sure the driveshaft follows out of the U-joint,
the undo the rear transmission mount, the rest is the same as the sedan.
