What is the easiest way to gain access to the top of the transmission without pulling the transmission from the truck? I had an engine fire and I have to replace the wiring harness and the kickdown cable. I got the old harness removed which was a pain in the a**! I don't know if I can even get the new harness plugged in. I didn't see/feel the kickdown cable when I was under there so I don't even know if I can get to it.
Can I unbolt the mounts and drop it down a little bit? Will I have to drop the transfer case and skid plates as well? What about the motor mounts should they be loosened?

Not sure you really need to do any of that. The main harness plug to tranny is on the side of the tranny as well as the TV cable on the other side. The only PITA is the O2 plug. Yea it's all blind work, but I would just do it by feel, rather than going through all that extra work for another couple inches. Which won't help much anyway. The crank sensor for instance is a PITA and pretty much a blind replacement, but I'm not going to raise the cab to make it easier.
