Default Pulled trans last night..

I thought it would be just a simple task since iv done it sooo many times..
it took me an hour and a half to pull the trans by myself..
the freaking exhaust nuts on the manifolds were on there really good!!
pulled the trans and drained it...

Then i decided what the heck... went and got my 44#Injectors..
Installed them and cleaned the shop up a little..

then i noticed it was 5:30AM!!!

Yep time to go to bed... haha....

Getting the Trans looked through Friday. Then the wait is on... Suppose to get my Yank TT3000 middle of next week....

If ya think it's tough removing/installing transmissions by yaself... try doing it by yaself w/o a trans jack. Now that's an exercise. I feel your pain on having to drop it multiple times. I can only hope this is my last time. Waiting on the shipment of some performance upgrades, then I can get my trans bolted back in. Easier to work on my bench/tailgate than upside down, under the truck.
