Behind the engine. To replace/service it you need to drop the rear axle.... transmission and pull the torque tube out of the bell housing and there it is. Not really a big job IF you have a lift and a good transmission jack or 2. Rear end comes out fairly easy.
I did mine a few years back just researching how tos in about 8 hours.

Thanks, I found a diagram of the shift linkage as I was unsure of its operation but not the clutch. I may be upgrading. I was being bad and tried a burnout, 1st gear was fish tailing a bit but when I hit 2nd the rpm went up but the tires were not spinning, then I smelled the clutch. Also the clutch pedal went to the floor. I drove easy for a mile then put it in 4th and gave it gas and it hooked fine. I have launched hard since with no slippage.

But MUCH closer to the engine than the transmission. It's in the same position (bolted to the flywheel) as a front transmission car.
