[Old Truck Man]

Crawl underneath and drop the driveshaft and remove the trans first. the bellhousing flywheel & clutch will need to come out with he engine. That beast is heavy so removing the trans first is worth the effort. Ive got to the point where I pull the front clip when changing engines. just makes the job much easier and you get to clean everything up better. Hook your lift chain where the engine will almost balance. let it be a little back heavy with the engine front tilted up a bit.
