Each time I've "pulled the engine and trans, I've lowered the car as much as possible with the wheels removed and unbolted the mounts with so it all sits on a dolly. Then raise the car and slide the mass out.
Harbor Freight has a motorcycle lift on sale. Has anyone used one of these for this process? If it could be rigged, it seems it would take a lot of work out of the jacking, and allignment issues. B |

I always get her rear end up in the air and balance the combo on a single floor jack and roll it out the back.
Has worked for me for both the /4 and the /6 engines. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) I (Well McMark actually) did make a small wood plate to match the bottom of the 3.6L engine to spread the load better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) Andy |
