I'm ready to remove my 32RH auto trans from my 1998 TJ for a rebuild. The frame to skid plate bolts are all out - yeah!
Most videos show first removing the skid plate from the transmission / transfer case mounting point. And then removing the tcase from the trans.
Why remove the transfer case from the transmission? Why not remove transmission / transfer case as a unit, and then detach when there is easy access once removed, instead of trying to do it on your back under the Jeep?
Or for that matter, why even unbolt the skid plate from the transmission / transfer case? Seems like the entire assembly can be unbolted from the engine, and use the skidplate as a support for the jack.
Is there a reason why I need to dissemble all these things while under the Jeep, instead of doing it once pulled?
