Extension Housing: Removal
- Raise and support vehicle. Remove exhaust system components as necessary for access. Disconnect parking brake cable from equalizer (if equipped). Mark drive shaft yoke and axle companion flange for reassembly reference. Remove drive shaft and disconnect speedometer cable from extension housing.
- Remove engine rear support-to-extension housing retaining bolts. Raise transmission just enough to remove weight from rear support. Remove rear support-to-crossmember retaining bolt and remove rear support.
- Lower transmission and remove extension housing retaining bolts. Slide housing off output shaft and allow fluid to drain. Remove and discard extension housing-to-case gasket.
