T-case stuck on tranny

[NEpilot]

Project new clutch complete; she is running like a champ!

Jacking the cab up was the key to not dealing with that damn Y-pipe and pounding that body seam flat help a lot. I did have a snapped Y-pipe bolt to deal with; what I ended up doing was welding another bolt to the snapped bolt which allowed me to tighten everything up again. This sure beat dealing with any drilled; though getting my mig gun in their was tight!

Must be a little air in the slave still; pedal a little mushy but I'll vacuum bleed it some more after I put some miles on it.

(After I got everything together as I was laying on my garage floor I look up at my workbench and spot a throwout bearing; for a instant I thought I forgot to put it in. I than remembered that I had an extra because the new slave kit and the clutch kit each came with one). I seriously about crapped my pants and wanted to cry until I remembered that was an extra.

Thanks everyone for the tips!

y pipe will come of

I have changed 3 clutches in my truck and have taken the y pipe off everytime.All you need to do is heat the bolts untill they are cherry red and they will release.Of course put new bolts in when you reassemble.
