T150 trans stuck on Bell housing

[harborman]

I can't seem to budge the Transmission off the Bell Housing on my 79 CJ5 . It has been on there for many years. I have the Transfer Case off but not the Transmission . I removed the 4 bolts holding the Transmission on. I tried driving a thin scraper between the case on housing but no lock. I tried hitting the case to turn it a little, no luck. I am soaking the joint with PB Blaster and let it sit.

Any ideas?

I was able to get it off by using a sharp chisel and hitting it along the bottom of the Transmission and bell housing. It finally came lose with that and plenty of PB Blaster.

Glad you got it, BP blaster and perseverance works wonders!

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I hit it with PB and let it sit over night, then found a sharper chisel and just worked at it.
