I decided I need to replace the clutch. It works fine but I don't want to deal with chatter in reverse and it will not be out of the garage for a couple of months.

I would like to drop everything in one piece. Is it too difficult?
How/where did you support the drivetrain? I am not show how balanced it will be.

I have a transmission jack and a standard floor jack.

Do I need to support the engine?
Should I unbolt the bell housing or the crossmember brackets first?

It's been a really long time ..But I've done a dozen or so .. Jack up the bronco some ..So it'll be safe ..Safety 1st... remove the drive shafts .. out of the way and check your u-joints. YOU could drain the fluids so as to not make a mess but I like to work in the spills.. Take out the cross member bolts and supports .
...Block under the motor. Then take the trans unloose from the bell housing .Remove the trans & transfer case in one chunk..
..Next remove the bell housing and CP&TO.
Have flywheel surfaced.
