I'm doing a tranny pan drop and filter change on my 98X. Have my front wheels on drive up ramps. Have all the bolts removed from the tranny pan and all the ATF drained out. I am not able to manuver the tranny pan to completely remove it for cleaning etc.
Very cramped quarters to manuver. It either gets hung by the front drive shaft, the front driver's side catalytic converter or the transmission shift linkage any of which would be a real PITA to remove just to get the pan down. What a headache. I've played with it every which way and just can't seem to get completely out. I'm really hoping one of you have run into the same problem and can bail me out of this jam.
Any help or advice out there?
