I need to remove the engine and transmission from the ole project car.
Can I remove these together as one big part? My initial plan was to drop the tranny from the bottom, wheel it out and then take out the engine using the crane.
But apparently it's much easier to remove them both together using the engine hoist.
After disconnecting the tailshaft and all the appropriate engine connections (hoses, lines, etc), is there anything else I need to be aware of?
Do I need to take off the bonnet? How should I have my helper help me whilst I'm jacking the thing up?
Anything else? I haven't attempted anything of this scale before and neither has my friend. So any advice at all would be appreciated.
Cheers
