Need help installing transmission

[socal]

I have a 1972 K10 350/205 my automatic transmission will not go more then 30mph and leaks oil like crazy is there a guide on what nuts and bolts to remove to swap out an automatic 4X4 transmission? do I need to remove the adapter and the t/c

[dammitmitchell]

rear drive shaft
front shaft
transfer case
tranny

prettu much in that order.. it a PITA
but cheaper to do it yourself then paying a shop

When removing the case take out the four bolts that are holding the adapter and case to the trans.It will be a lot easier than leaving the adapter on the trans and pulling the case.

I took out the T/case, the adapter and remove all the bolts that attach the tranny to the engine but im having a problem sliding it out. it comes out about 3/4 of an inch then it wont budge, do I need to remove the stater or do I just need to hammer this thing out?

Unbolt the starter, you'll also need to unbolt the torque converter from the fly wheel, otherwise you'll mess up the trans pump...
