    Any chance you could roughly list the steps to do it? Did you get the rental press kit from Autozone?

    Looking good so far!! I like how you added those braces to hit the crossmember where the stock skid is also braced... should add a lot of strength!

    Thanks. Yea that's what I'm hoping. I never have cared for the skids that leave those off like the bud builts. I feel like that is an easy crush point that needs the extra bracing.

    Why did you need a puller? Just bang the shit out of it and shock it out.

    I can't get the bell housing off of the block. Is there a hidden bolt on the driver side i am un able to find? My Headers go right there and I can't feel a bolt head. I took everything off I could find including the starter bolts.

    There's most likely on at the very top you can not see. Stand back and see if you can see one up there. Use a mirror if you have one. Is it an auto or manual?

    Make sure the ones at the top are out. If they are move it around should come free. Are you on a lift or on stands?
