xyzb Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Feedback on installing the motor/trans bolted together? I have help but was thinking the car may need to be higher on the stands which could be an issue for the hoist that I have. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Pin Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I would install them separately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmdew Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I've pulled them together, its a pain. Auto's are really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott in Bellingham Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 If you drop the whole front subframe and suspension then yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyzb Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 Yea, I figured to separate and install. I received them trans/motor as one from a auto recycler. I wasn't too happy to see a left strap on the intake. I will check the intake bolts but why that when there are lift points on the motor? I was reading some folks pull them that way?

SnowDogsOwner Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 There's a bracket on the passenger's side rear of the motor that has a large hole in it. I've always used that and a one of the holes under the AC compressor. If you're going with a leveler (highly recommended) then you'll have to find another point on each side to attach a chain.
