93cutty Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Ok for all of you that have never done it I started at 10am and it is now 12:53pm and it is back in the car. I started with wheels, hubs, halfshafts, motor mounts, unplug everything you can see, exhaust, power steering, air conditioning, hell anything that can get in the way just remove. After that I just pulled the motor and tranny as one from the top of the car. Only thing that got in the way going through the top was the brake booster. I think the hardest part is trying to remember to plug everything back in. If your thinkin about doin this I hope you have the right tools and a nice place to do it. Now back to putting everything back together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was an auto for an auto and I didnt really need any special tools just alot of metric in different sizes.

93cutty Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Damnit I broke the plastic outlet on the powersteering resevoir but I found one at the local boneyard for 10 bucks and they also have 2 complete sets of crosslaces. Anyone have pics of a cutlass with crosslaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
