Well, IT IS OUT!!! Sitting on a tire in my garage. Whew what a mess.
Thanks again for the help so far. I'm sure I will have other issues going back in.
As a note to others that might use this thread...I found the following:
The passenger axle does have to have the carrier ? removed from the engine block to get it to slide out of the tranny. I did leave it in the axle hub but wasn't sure how that carrier thing worked. It does not come apart that I could see so I unbolted it from the engine then pushed the engine to the far drivers side and it slid out finally.
Also, when removing the clutch slave cylinder thing...you must push and turn it COUNTERCLOCKWISE not CLOCKWISE.
Also...I found this out the hard way and should have known, DUH, that you must drain the tranny fluid BEFORE you take the axle out. I made a big mess!
I'll be getting the used engine ready to go back in probalby this weekend.
Good idea to tie the clutch up! I'll do that when I get home.
