    When I jack up the trans to remove the old mount, transfer case hits tunnel before there is adequate clearance. Is it necessary to remove the cross-member to change this mount?

    I put a jack under the trans and gave it a little support then removed the bolts to the cross member on one side, loosened the other side and removed all bolts for the mount. Lowered the crossmember a little and was able to remove the mount. Reverse for reassembly
