@@adampindell About 15 years ago, I had to put a clutch in a mid 90s powerstroke. I didn't have a lift, or a trans jack or a shop to work in. I ended up supporting the trans and transfer case on 3 bottle jacks and rolled the whole truck ahead to make enough room to replace the clutch, then rolled the whole truck back and tied it all back together. Not fun, and super sketchy, but when you're young and broke you gotta get creative.
