Hi, this is my first post here and sorry it has to be a please help me post, but after screwing around for an hour last night I cant seem to get the transmission loose from the engine. This is a 93 Ranger 2.3 2wd with a M5OD. Here is what I have done:
1 - removed shifter and all electrical connections
2 - removed the hydrolic line from the slave
3 - removed starter
4 - remove drive sahft
5 - removed all the bolts (even the ones on the top between firewall and engine)
6 - supported engine
7 - supported tranny
broke loose the passenger side of the tranny but the drivers side wont budge.
I think that I removed all the bolts holding it (would be helpfull to find a diagram of the bolt pattern on this bell housing), it looks like it is being held up on the drivers side second bolt from the bottom, but the bolt is out. I cant for the life of me wiggle it loose, even when I lift up on the tranny it lifts the back of the enigne.
Any hints on this and also how to get the bolts from on top of the bell housing back on because it took forever to get them off...
Thanks in advance!!
