Post subject:  42RLE Transgo Shift Kit Install - Help Needed!

So, I've done several of these Trango Shift Kit installs, but I'm stumped on my Jeep.

I've got all the screws out that hold the valve body in, but something is still holding it in. It's not the electrical harness, as I've disco'd that. I believe the shift position shaft is catching or something. I can get it to drop about 1/2", but then nothing.

Does anyone have experience putting one of these in? Any tricks I need to know?

Fast replies appreciated, although I see it's after 1am so I may have to wait until tomorrow to finish.

Thanks!

Well, I found some directions on removal of the valve body, and it is what I thought it to be. It appears the shift lever needs to be removed, which is what I've been working on, however it is a real PITA to get to. I'm about to pull up some carpet and drill a hole thru the floorboard!

If anyone has any suggestions please pass them on.

Thanks

Yeah, I found a service manual for the 42RLE. It appears that the gear selector shaft is attached to the valve body, and that shaft goes up thru the top of the transmission housing, where the shift lever attaches to it. It's just a PITA to get to the bolt that holds the shift lever on. Was trying to see if anyone had experience getting it off.

Thanks
