Disconnect the shift linkage and electrical connections from the transmission. Drain the transmission fluid. Remove the driveshaft. Unbolt the transmission from the bellhousing. Lower the transmission from the vehicle. Remove the torque converter. To replace, install torque converter, raise transmission up to the vehicle and bolt to the bellhousing. Replace the driveshaft and connections.
