havent done it in a while but if i remember right the only thing in the way is the exhaust. so drop the exhaust and then remove all of the bolts from the back of the shaft where it meets the rear end. i would take one out release the ebrake rotate the shaft and move to the next bolt until theyre all out. then it will push into the tranny about an inch or two so you can free the back and then it just slides out of the tranny. Pretty easy. Later
