Great intel and was very helpful as I tackled all the underside stuff. I decided to go with the motor only removal route for now and removed the bellhousing bolts, starter, dust shield and motor mount to frame perch bolts. I will get all the topside parts removed tomorrow and should be ready to pull the motor. Hopefully I can get things in place for next Saturday.

Another question. My truck has a deluxe heater and it looks like heater core box may get in the way. Do I need to remove it?

Thanks again for all the great information as it has been very helpful!
