Default 1995 C1500 Tranny Pan Gasket

I'm needing to change the tranny pan gasket on our 1995 Silverado C1500 ext. cab w/auto transmission & 2 wheel drive. I can tell the gasket is leaking on the back side.

I have never replaced one before but have experience working on vehicles. My question is how can I remove the bracket supporting the transmission so the back pan bolts can be removed? It has a stud coming down from the tranny through the middle of the bracket. I can see 2 other bolts attached to transmission housing which might let the bracket slide out but not sure what I should or shouldn't take loose.

Or, is this a job better left to a professional? Doesn't look like it is that hard of a job once the bracket is removed.

Thanks.

Bracket? Are you refering to the crossmember?

You will have to jack the trans up to get the mount out. Just dont go crazy with it.
