Thanks Howard for all the information.
So moving on, I figure this would be a good time to get the Battery Tray out of my way, since it does need to be clean and painted. Removed the four bolts and then for the life of me, I couldn't figure why the tray wouldn't come out. I had forgot about the two bolts behind the Drivers Front Wheel. Stupid me!
Got that out and moved on to removing the Shift Linkage from the side of the motor. Hardest part unhooking the arms going to the transmission. Found one of the bushings froze up. Next on the list start cleaning everything and another question about lubing the linkage. I would be afraid to use grease, due to it would collect dirt and act like a grinding compound or am I just over thinking this?
Also one last thing to remove are the arms going to the transmission and cleaning those up then I'll be ready to put everything back together.
