Once you have these bolts out, set the transmission back on end with the bell housing down. There are 5 bolts that are on the outside, remove these.

Now it is time to get out a hammer and punch. There is a big nut on the shaft that has the gears and splines left; it may be dented already from when they put it on. Use the punch on one of the corners to loosen the bolt; once you have it loosened you can finish backing it off with a wrench.

After you have that out use the hammer and a small round punch or a nail to drive out the pins in the guide rods. There will be two pins that you need to take out in the top most layer that you can see and one that is inside where you disconnected the shift tower from. One of the pins on the top layer isn’t a roll pin and will have two discs on it, make sure you save those little discs and the rod. The other roll pin holds the shift fork onto the rail for reverse.

When you take out the one from the shift tower watch it so you don’t try to pound it through a gear.

Once you have those removed you can go back to the top layer. Now it is time for the gear puller again. Pull the gears so that you can see that the shaft will fit through the hole in the main housing.
