Hi thanks for the help. Will the manual shift box fit up through the hole and allow me access to fly wheel? Sorry if not using the right name. I was thinking that I could hoist it up in my cab.

Pretty sure you'll want to remove the shifter before pulling it out too far. You can work around it but it's not worth it. Little pin holds the handle in place. Should be able to google or youtube it. Been a while since I played with one.
