I saw a video on YouTube where they showed how to remove the MT. I'm just afraid of breaking the casing on it and having to buy another... If it comes down to it, I'll just earn the money and buy a jack. Jegs has one for $189 right now that I'm looking at.
I took the passenger side header and cat out. The driver side looked terrible to do, so I removed the front driveshaft to give me better access to the starter that I still haven't removed. I have fat fingers, so more access definitely helps.
I just put a bit of time in every night so that my...

I'm looking at how to do a leak down and compression test. I get the cylinder 2 misfire. I'm realistic and think a new set of heads and timing gear is in my future
I use a FOUR UNCLES 2L Vacuum Brake Bleeder that I bought off Amazon for $60. It requires an air compressor, but it makes the job stupid easy. I used it on our van when I flushed the brake fluid. I'm about to do the same on my truck and the Jeep.
