The FSM shows 12 bolts total, including the starter. Take the rear cross member and rear trans mount off per the FSM and lower the engine on a jack. This will give you plenty of room.

I just took off the 12 bolts and dropped the x member, i didnt take off the rear mount. It worked out fine.
Oh yea, the center of the tranny and x case is right in front of the x member. Its the perfect balance spot haha.

When i was pulling my tranny, i could only pull it straight back about 2 inches then i realized the t case shifter housing was getting caught on the shifter plate. So i bent it up a little bit and then dropped the back.
Can you at least pull it back an inch or so?
