4speed Removal with Engine Question

It sounds like you only have the 4 tranny bolts holding it in. You have the engine supported with a jack, and as you pull tranny out lower engine jack. It sounds like either a rear engine seal leak or front trans seal, but more than likely rear main seal leak. By the way you don't have to remove bellhousing to remove tranny. Also if you put jack under oil pan put a piece of plywood to protect it. Linkage rods are attached to trans so will come out with the transmission, no need to disconnect.
