Setting about to pull the engine in my truck. Everything in order. Looking closer at the transmission case, it looks like it had a partial repair of the outer case. I knew something had been done from looking below. It is a four speed with side mounted PTO for the dump bed.

Although I was only planning on pulling the engine, I was thinking that with what I have seen of the transmission case, while I was going through the hassle of removing the engine, I should probably also remove the transmission. Two quick questions: 1. Should they be removed as one whole unit or do engine and then transmission? 2. If as one unit, what would be the estimated combined weight of the two.

Thanks,
