'88 Cab top repair - need help!

I've been repairing the faulty top for my 88 cab for weeks and have made significant progress. I followed the ECU diagnosis steps and electrically everything works properly now that I repaired one latching motor and made a new spring for the top latch switch.

I then over tightened the bolt on the driver side transmission and snapped it. ($50 later I have a new bolt). However, removing the old bolt will separate the snap ring and washer internally SO now I have to remove the trans.

Does anyone have a post or a manual to guide? Doesnt look to daunting but forewarned is forearmed.

Thanks

I do have a few TSBs and the Porsche and Bentley Workshop manuals. I searched this forum pretty extensively and surprisingly did not find info on the trans removal...
