Pulling the engine an trans?

good to doo

Registered User
I have a parts car here, and the last thing I want out it is the engine an 5 speed. Will I be able to pull it all as 1, or do I have to split them. I do have an engine crane. Thanks in advance.
 
To get both together, it may be easier to ... lift the body off the front K-member.

That's an idea; otherwise, I'd split them.

There's plenty of room to pull the engine and trans together out through the engine bay if you don't want to drop the K-member. I've done it several times, both in and out. Just make sure you remove the shifter!
 
If this is a parts car that you are sending to the junkyard after you pull the motor and trans, then just take a sawzall and cut through the rad support, and that will give you plenty of room to pull them as one unit.
 
I'd rather pull both at the same time too. You'll need to have the car raised up off the ground a bit to let the tailshaft swing down too.
 
Thanks for the info guys, is there a drain plug on the 5 speed trans so I don,t make a mess without the drive shaft in it. Thanks again.
