need help pulling the motor off the tranny
got a 2001 360 1500 ram with auto tranny. how many bolts hold the tranny to the motor? im guessing i didn't get them all seeing how the motor is still stuck to the tranny.
are you sure its just not seized in? ive done some trannys where they wouldnt separate from the motor, and we had to get big pry bars, alot of people, and alot of strength to separate them....not to burst your bubble....but it may be a bolt still in, just thoght you should know this.
11 bolts total 7 that bolt the belhousing to the engine, 4 that hold various parts on that you have to unbolt to remove the trans and also make sure you got the top one, thats the hardest one to get off and people always forget about it.
Also dont forget to unbolt the flywheel from the torque converter

Did you get the flex plate bolts? There are four of them. On my truck there are two braces that must come out, two bolts up higher, two lower, and two big ones that go from the motor to the tranny. There where six total that are hold the bell housing to the motor. The can be a pain to seperate. I just hooked the motor to the hoist and started shaking it. Make sure the tranny is supported.
After reading yakkiers edit there may be another bell housing bolt.
