I didn’t mention the boot or the clamps because I thought you had the boot kit from Ford. That also made things easier for me.
Wasn't a doubt in my mind that I had clamps large enough. But I failed to verify prior. :facepalm:

This was an interesting thread. At least it wasn't one of those "I now need to buy that useless accessory that I don't need" type thread. I guess that I will be added to the long list of members doing this 'fix.' The video on the first page made it look simple. I am also in line to do the transmission pan, filter, and fluid project. Almost all of the parts are on hand finally. This one I dread!

That is the reason it took so long. You kept losing count of the ups and downs. When you count groans too, it helps to make you feel as though you are at least doing it right! Get a bigger cardboard floor pad too, it really helps!
I'm not going to be a math major when I do mine. I will start sunrise though so I can finish before sunset.
