looking back on it, it was actually not that bad. ?the problem I had was that I removed the nuts that hold the backets on top of the bellhousing. I didn't realize that the stud was still bolting the trans to the engine. I felt stupid yet relieved once i got it done hahaha. As everyone else mentioned, extensions, a deep socket and a wobble adapter will do the trick (plus beer!)

I think I've done the same thing, I'll have to check in the morning.
Also, I got in an argument with my dad about this, he said that you have to unbolt the torque converter before pulling the transmission from the motor, (He's an old school car guy) I told him that's impossible and it all has to come out as one unit (Transmission, converter, flexplate.. someone want to clear this up for us?
Also he thinks that my 3k Circle-D stall is going to absolutely kill the driveablility of my truck... I guess he just really doesn't understand these newer vehicles...
