my48soto Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 I decided to pop my engine out last weekend and got my tranny off and blame ran into a brick wall. How the heck do you get the bell housing off. I am dazed and confused right now. Can anybody help please:eek: Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted August 28, 2009 Report Posted August 28, 2009 2 ways to do this-1st remove the lower bell housing and either remove the fluid coupling 8 nuts and remove the coupling 1st or knock the 2) 1/2" bell housing alignment dowel pins carefully out of the rear block flange towards (into)the bell housing, just enough so the bell housing falls loose -of course with all the bell housing bolts 1st removed. This will let you lift the upper bell housing up off the fluid coupling still attached to the engine, and of course the lower housing must be 1st removed in either case. 2nd way makes it easier to remove the fluid couling nuts. They are either 5/8" or 11/16" nuts. Bob Quote
