So, the best way to do this would be to take the mated transfer case and 4 spd tranny out, service them, then remove the TH350 and transfer case and replace with the donor stuff. Nice to have a donor, for sure.

BTW, where are the ID #'s for the transfer case located?

My son and his buddy spent 5 hours on Saturday and 4 hours on Sunday working on the removal from the donor. They were up to their ears in muck--just trying to find the bolts was an adventure. They ended on Sunday with the cross members out, the flywheel cover off, drive lines off and the transfer case out--and about ten pounds of greasy dirt piled around them. This weekend they go after the tranny--or so they say. Quite the job, definitely more than they bargained for!

Thanks for your input...
