So, if I'm successful, I'll give a resume of the procedure!  |
Do not forget to loosen the torque converter bolts before lowering the engine and transmission assembly!
Other than that, its fairly straight forward.

Could you clarify this? Not quite sure why I need to do this.

What worked for me - mostly unless I got careless during dis-assembly- Start by putting on blue tape / sharpie labels on everything you are going to dis-assemble and then taking about 20 or 30 pictures to cover everything from every angle before you actually dis-assemble it. Be sure to label every connector with a description you can use for assembly. The tape labels will be very helpful during assembly -you wont be sorry for taking this time while re-assembling. Also bag every bolt in a ziplock bag with a note as to what the bolt is and where it goes. Be very specific so it's not a mystery when you re-assemble. I labeled some "under car bolts", what a useless idiot move. If bolts can be taped into the hole they came out of, like the four from the cross member, put the bolt through the hole and put a tape flag on the threads to hold it there. That's where I started!

Oh yes. I totally agree with that. Glad I've got my handy iphone always ready in my pocket! Taking things apart is easy!
