My buddy was supposed to come by Saturday and help me pull my engine/tranny/transfer-case combo but he has been sick for the past few days.
I have been busy lately but had Sat. all to myself so went ahead and pulled it myself. I got it out but it was a pain and did some minor damage that I wouldn't have done if I pulled at least the core support.

When I go to put the replacements back in I am going to pull the core support out. Just way easier that way. As said above it's like a dozen or so bolts to pull it. I am just wondering if I need to pull the harness or if I can just pull the core to the side without pulling the harness from the core?
