10. On 4X4 vehicles, remove adapter housing seal with a pry tool or a slide hammer and screw.

TRANSMISSION GEAR CASE





1. Remove remaining bolts from transmission case to the clutch housing.
2. Remove shift socket roll pin with a 6 mm (7/32 inch) punch and hammer.
3. Turn shift socket so it won't catch the case when lifting it up.

GEARTRAIN





1. Remove 5-6 crossover bracket (1) bolts.





2. Mount Fixture 8232 (2) to output shaft (1) and countershaft.
3. Attach engine crane to Fixture 8232 and raise geartrain approximately � inch from the clutch housing.
4. Remove 5-6 crossover bracket from the clutch housing.
5. Lower geartrain back into the clutch housing.





6. Install Holding Tool 8242 (1) onto 5-6 synchro (2) and tighten screw to hold 5-6 synchro together during removal.

NOTE: Note the order of the shift fork arms at the primary shift rail, while in the Neutral position.





7. Raise geartrain and shift rails until all the shift rails clear the clutch housing.
8. Remove shift rails (1) from the rest of the geartrain.
9. Raise geartrain until the input shaft is clear of the clutch housing.





10. Remove geartrain from clutch housing and install geartrain into Support Stand 8246 (2).
11. Remove Fixture 8232 (1) from output shaft and countershaft.
12. Separate countershaft from output shaft.
13. Separate output shaft from the input shaft. Hold 5-6 synchro together while removing output shaft to prevent synchro sleeve from being dislodged from the synchro hub.
