Can you pull a 2.5 with manual tranny & transfer case attached?


Recommended Posts

It looks like I will have to pull the whole assembly with the gear shifter attached.  I remember a long time ago when I was assembling it back together I didn't have a gasket for the shifter top plate.  I thought to myself I will just put some RTV in here and stick it back together. Well let me tell you, I stuck it together real good, It will not come apart now...  I can put a 3' pry bar in there, it won't budge,  I'm afraid I will break the transmission mount from prying on it so hard!  There is no access to wedge something in-between the two parts.

 

With the truck sitting on the ground I should have 2" to spare to clear the shifter under the body.  Once I have it on the ground I should be able to drive something under the plate and break it loose.

Fast forward to 1:55 and that'll be the easiest way to remove the shifter....

It shows on a wrangler but I've done on both my ax5 and ax15 transmissions

 

 

Ok, so how do you get the top part of the shifter cane off old the lower part where the square shaft fits onto the shifter stub?

 

For me changing the bushing and seal is the easy part, getting the cane apart to change that first little boot :fs1:
