Unbolting transmission on 4.0 SOHC

[ShhhhhDougsHere]

I have my transmission out right now.

I used a long-handled Harbor Freight wrench.

The way I got the top 2 bolt out with the wrench was to Jack my transmission up until it was touching the floor of my truck.
I then laid over top the motor and was able to get to the very top two bolts a lot easily with the wrench.

I used the wrench for all eight bolts.

Good luck brother.

I just went to my thread " I'm sure I got a Short"
@SenorNoob is the one who gave me the advice on raising the rear of my transmission up to get to the top 2 bellhousing bolt.
It's in post 653 of the thread. On page 44 of the thread.
