you gotta get the motor and trans at the right angle and shake the hell out of it, It will come off. Took me about an hour the first time. try jacking up on the tail shaft slowly but be careful. Take your time.

Another trick is to pull the starter and put a 2x2 up against the tranny and beat it with a sledge hammer.

Bolt a chain to the extension housing where the torque arm mounts, and attach the other end of the chain to a vehicle behind your car. Drink a few, and then let it rip. Works every time.
