Aldoat Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 Can an EA81 and a 4spd D/R transmission be pulled from an 86 Brat as one unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 Could be I think - but it's not usually done that way. The main problem is the 4 spd D/R is very (VERY) long and would hang up on everything. Would be messier than splitting them. It's only 2 bolts and 2 nuts to split them apart. You would have to disconnect all the linkage, and drop the cross member for the tranny - remove the radiator and disconnect everything from the engine.... you would lose all the tranny fluid out the back of the tranny as soon as the driveline pulled free too - messy.

Aldoat Posted December 28, 2003 Author Share Posted December 28, 2003 Thanks GD. Was just wondering since it's been done with other makes. And that tranny being so long (which I forgot about), would make it more difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 Been done,not a problem with a rolling engine lift at all.Good to have 2 men there for that.When you lift it the weight makes it tip down anyways so it isn't really a problem.Take the radiator out first and take the hood off.
