ok I have every thing loose. Ran into one problem. I have headers and gear box will not come out. How hard is it to talke that lever on the bottom of the gear box off? What size bolt is that? My only choice is to take off lever or headers. lol I sure hope I can put all this stuff back together. I know one thing if not for you all guys here I would have been stuck long time a go. I sure thank all of you on this forum

The pitman arm takes a stout puller to get it off, You can usually rent/borrow one from your local auto parts place.
The nut is 1 5/16", I think...it's been a while since I've pulled one off.
Good Luck with it, and be careful...that thing is fairly heavy!
