It should unbolt from the rear, unbolt center carrier bearing from mount and pull drive shaft out the rear. It helps if the truck is facing nose down, the minute you pull the slip joint out of the trans it will leak fluid otherwise. Or just put a baggie and rubber band over the tailshaft. Be careful when replacing the driveshaft in the trans so you don't ruin the rear seal.
