That sounds good to me if you are using a transmission jack. You might want to replace the clutch as long as you have it out.

Do you have to remove the crossmember? I didnt, but mine was a 4x4. If you arent using a transmission jack, i hope you ate your wheaties. It can be benchpressed into place, but youll feel it in the morning.

Good luck

Its a 2 wheeler, and having the cross memeber out really helps.
I almost got my t-18 stuck somehow when I was yanking it out through the engine bay becuase of the cross memeber
