    is there a alignment to seperate the T-Case from the transmission?

    I have a 86 4 cyl manual 4runner. Is there a certain position the sticks are supposed to be in when separating the T-case from transmission? or an alignment of some kind? ... I don't want to pry too much without checking first... and of all things missing is my manual.... Thanks
