Help with c4 removal

I am new to this whole thing and decided to jump in head first.

I bought a 67 f100 with a 302 married to a c4.

Couple months back the transmission died while i was driving to work. It will go backwards but not forwards.

I assumed the forward clutch pack is burned out smelling the fluid.

I am attempting a rebuild of the c4. Only i am running into an issue with removing the transmission. There is the crossember under the bellhousing. Does anyone have any tips on removing this crossmember to allow clearance for the transmission to drop down?

Any help would be appreciated.


"EDIT" Got it out and already started tearing down, any tips welcomed.

I have to say that it sounds kind of odd that your going to attempt to rebuild the trans, but you can't figure out how to remove it

It sounds like you don't have a tranny jack for one thing.
May be this is why no one has replied.

Well I got it out and have begun teardown. Used ratchets across the frame to lower it down. Moved the front crossmemeber with a BFH.

Like i said I am new to this. I dive in headfirst. I figure the forums are here for help if need be.
