Engine pulling!!


Every engine has its day, and this one was ready to go in this shot. I had to roll the car out of the garage, and put it up on jack stands so that the transmission could drop freely. I rented a crane for $25, and took off the engine mounting bolts etc. The next step was to put a jack under the transmission and remove the support.
Now I've got the car up on stands and the bolts are off!! Next I need to hook up the crane.
The crane is in place and the jack is ready!! I called my next door neighbor to give a hand. I got under the car and let down on the jack ever so slowly, while he lifted on the crane.
And out she came!! No problem. Now I have to figure out how to get the engine onto the stand!!
