I'm guessing something very bad has required you to remove this?

Not really. Everything is caked with 40 years of oil and dirt about a 1/4" thick I can't tell where things are leaking from. I want to clean the underside as well as possible. I know the lift cylinder leaks but the motor and transaxle do also. I'm going to get a kit to do the cylinder. Once it's relatively clean I can track down the other leaks. Hope that makes sense.

Sounds like a job for a steam cleaner then.
Lot of work just for a clean up

That makes sense. You may just be able to remove the dash tower. You can get to everything easily if you remove it. A good hot water pressure washer would certainly remove all the crud. Good luck with it.

I figured id use the trailer instead of just tossing in the pickup to keep all the crud off the truck. Then waited for the crud to dry, and swept it off. Good luck with your project, and keep us posted.
