help needed with 904

As to pulling the pump, I usually screw two long bolts in the holes provided, and hook a pair of heelbars under the heads.A little pressure and the pump jumps right out.
I once saw a guy just tip the tranny over on it's nose, and with a little bump on the concrete floor, all the guts fell out.
I have also seen it yanked out with a chain that had a heavy weight on it.
Pull the front out, before taking the tail off, or you will have a real mess
