Unfortunately while I was changing my fuel filter (1st order of business) it began to rain. I packed up and headed inside without being able to crawl under and check the plate.

Lexxani, I believe you're referring to the driveshaft flex disc. The part I am referring to is between the torque converter and flywheel, which would require separation of engine and transmission.

DeliveryValve, how long did it take you to complete the job? As I read in the thread, all you had were jackstands and a HF trans hoist? I assume an added expense to the piece of sheet metal would be a front pump gasket? Still only a couple bucks.
