I've got a '93 Auto 5.0 and I've got a small tranny fluid leak. So my buddy and I went under and found it leaking from the front of the tranny filter. I went out and bought the filter, gasket and 3 gallons of mercon. I started reading the Haynes (if that's how its spelled) manual and tracing steps and then I noticed that the two front pan bolts are obstructed by the tranny mount and cross-member.
1. Is there any way to do anything except removing the cross-member to get to those two bolts?
2. If I do remove the the two mount bolts and the cross-member itself, are the engine and driveshaft enough to hold the weight of the tranny while I do the filter?
3. Any other pointers anyone may have on doing the filter/gasket?
Thanks much!
