stabworthy Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 does any know or have a good guess on how much the whole lump( trans , tc and oils) weights ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebayfish Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 When I dropped my auto, I'd say it weighed approx 300 lbs with transfer case, 225 without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebayfish Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Yeah, a friend and I loaded it into a flatbed with a couple fan belts, no prob. No way it weighed anywhere near 450. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebayfish Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I've been told you can drop the tranny without taking the torsion bars etc. off if you remove your transfer case first then pull the transmission. I've never done it, that way but it might be easier, that'll definitely reduce the weight on the jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stabworthy Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 im trying not to pull out, just scoot it back to see what sounds like a rock in a can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebayfish Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I'm fairly confident your jack will be fine, worst case, throw a trolley jack under the transfer case and scoot them back together. Make sure to pull the starter to get to the hidden bolts. Cross your fingers its& hope just the clutch, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
