Remove the valve body; ten bolts, easy peasy, remove the front band adjuster completely and the band strut will fall out. Then spray WD40 around the pump where it contacts the case. Remove the 6 pump bolts. Gently pry between the lugs of the drums to push out the pump. Sometimes you have to tap the pump back in a few times. But spray more WD40 around the pump before you tap it back in. You can use two bellhousing bolts screwed into the pump(2 of the pump bolt holes are threaded). Pry against the head of the bolts with a large channel locks top. If that doesn't work, remove the starter stud, stand the trans up on its bell housing on concrete; lift it 6" high and drop it onto the concrete for the pump and front drums to fall out. Sometimes 3" works. Oh, and that's INCHES not FEET.
