Tranny jack makes it a lot easier.

Getting the upper transfer case nuts is easier if you have a 9/16" stubby wrench, or a 9/16" crowfoot wrench.

Lowering the tail end of the transmission will make it easier to reach the upper bellhousing bolts - which probably require an E12 socket, if they haven't been replaced yet (External Torx.) They are threaded 3/8"-16 - so you can match the length of the thing and replace them with hex heads so you don't have to dork around with the things later.

Remember to disconnect your transfer case linkage. If you bend it, you can cause problems shifting into 4wd, and sometimes it'll pop out of 4wd when you really don't want it to.
