69, you work from inside the cab. Remove dashboard and all wiring, drill through the cab, pull bell housing, drill through the back of the block, pull everything back. Work from the inside, a piece of cake. Caulk the block hole up tightly, re-install, rewire.
Come on back in if we can help you through the job.

Then were here for you.
