- Fri Feb 18, 2011 7:57 pm #239572 Ok sorry of the dum question but I'm taking my b18 motor out of my eg this weekend can any one direct me in the right direction on where to start I have all the tools and equipment but don't know where to start I wanna pull the tranny and motor together is this possible

- Fri Feb 18, 2011 8:06 pm #239575 there is two ways of doing it. under the car or out from under the hood.
if you want to drop it from under the car make sure you have enough room. if from under the hood you nee a cherry picker or engine lift.

first. disconnect the battery
drain all of the fluids and disconnect all of the coolant lines, harness, and fuel lines

second. remove the exhaust, shift linkages, tie rods, shocks, lower control arms, and axles

third. support the motor and trans, then unbolt the mounts. remove the motor and trans all in one.

your car is your story, dont let someone else write the book.

- Fri Feb 18, 2011 11:24 pm #239597 there should be a few bolt holes in the top half of your engine just bolt the chains to it or at least thats what we do
